Likewise, I am runnning dual 400mhz celeron cpu's. From my understanding
(perhaps I read it in the faq), dual proc's run best when they are the EXACT same
processor, right down to the manufacturing location. I bought my board and procs
at the same place and received the exact same processors, from the same factory.
So, my processors show up just fine. This won't really help with your problem,
just an FYI. I am running BP6 as well, perhaps your board has a problem running
dual celerons. . . . .
Another aside, Intel cut the ability in celerons to run on dual processor boards
around August. So if your processors are manuf. from August on, this could be
the effect of that operation.......but then, I am really stretching on this one.
Intel's attitude annoys the h*ll out of me. If I buy your product, I should be
able to do whatever I want with it. Did you test two different processors from
the same genre?
