- Ok, any hardware gurus, I am badly in need of help. When I originally designed and built my current box, the intention was to use the Athlon XP 2600+ CPU. But it was late getting to market, and quite expensive, so I chose the XP 1800+ as a temporary solution until the price dropped to a reasonable level on the 2600+. Now it has, and I bought the CPU over a week ago. Now, I can actually go ahead and install it now but my motherboard would support it much better with a BIOS update. |
