Re: 1400 Processor Upgrade
I have two PB1400s sitting on my desk right now (one c one cs). I also happen to have a 166 daughtercard sitting in a box on the shelf beside my desk. Why, you might ask, is that 166 daughtercard sitting on a shelf when it could be comfortably sitting inside one of these PB1400s? Because when I tried to put it in them, ziiip - pop. Nothing. The machine I am writing this on has a 133 Mhz processor -- the other one is the same. If you find a way to make the 166 Mhz daughtercard work in a 117/133 -- short of replacing the MoBo to a 166 MoBo, which is a possibility, and why I keep the card -- then I'm first in line to do it!! In my research I found that there were apparently a *very* few 133s that had the new ROM that would make it possible to use the 166 processor, unfortunately, neither of mine do... (I think Mad Dog gave a link to a FAQ on it). Whoever posted the note saying that they actually had a 133 that was upgraded to 166 is the first real-world example that I have heard. Does anyone know what percentage of 133s were made with the new ROM? Were there serial numbers that could be used to determine which one you have? The 166 Mhz processor, btw, can be identified by the little black button sitting beside the backside cache on the card -- thanks to Malcolm for that little note Rick 1400/133/64 Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 1400 Processor Upgrade Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2003 12:34:01 -0700 Hi folks, Looking for a definitive answer as to whether it is possible to replace the 133 cpu with a 166 cpu.
