Cross check the bus speeds with another program like the new Everest trial version or check the speeds in bios. Maybe some auto overclocking/underclocking power saving software is enabled and slowing it down if it's not demanding the power.

Get to know the bios inside out, that's where you'll finally end up anyway.

Here is the Dual Core Hotfix.

I got the link from HardOCP. It is legit.

Even without the hotfix Windows XP will use both cores. I'm not sure exactly what the hot fix does, but apparently it is supposed to make things run faster on dual core. Nice to see you're up and running. :D

Make sure you enable it correctly


Instructions are a few posts down on this page with a new working link to the hotfix post which includes one for XP x64 if you happen to use that OS

You can't return them?

How much are you parting them for? I could use one. :D

An alternative is to put them up on eBay.

LOL!!! Great signature Nick!!

Not really back.. just happen to be at my office on Sunday and looking for a reason to duck off a bit.. must get back to work now.



As for the ATI cards... sorry, I have something coming to match the DFI RD600-T2R/G I got last week AND DONT HAVE TIME TO PLAY WITH IT UNTIL AFTER THE 1st or POSSIBLY LATER >:(    :o


It should be here before xmas...


You guys should have access to the RD600-T2R/G on the 15th or so.


Later  :)
