I have upgraded my Acer 712 300Mhz PII with a PII 400Mhz chip.
Bios does recognize the chip as Pentium Pro, :cry: . I can boot and Windoze works, but I get lots of error and computer crashes often. Software does recognize PII 400Mhz correctly. Any help known? I have the latest bios revision from Acer, they obviosly did not support this chip. The upgrade changed the Northbridge as well, since they are mounted on the same daughterboard. - is Intel BX now. Processor connector is mmc-1.

thanks - Michael
