A couple months ago, I got a PC-CHIPS mb (M726v33) from a friend. Last week I changed my Celeron433 with a PII 450 from a collague, cause his mb only supported fsb 66. Last WE I bought a PII350 (secondhand), for the M726.
Prob is, the M726 don't want to boot with the PII350. My guess is has to do something with the PII350 since the psu, mb, bios, testram of 16Mb SDRAM and PCI videocard worked well with both the Cel as well with the PII450 (thus with fsb of 66 as well as 100).
I'm puzzled cause when I check a ISA slot and the bios chip with a digi-probe, signals on the adress and data bus are pulsing which has to mean that the proc is functioning. Can it be some timing prob on the proc (faulty resist or capa), or could the proc be stuck between some adresses and doing a loop of always the same instructions from bios?
