BIOS Updates forum

thanks for the input raceboy,unfortunately its still no go,regardless @1.466+1600mgz @133fsb on both workstations they noticably outperform the previous dual 1.266 +1.133 pentium s to the point i was happy to sell smp cpus +go faster + pocket some decent change too (despite assumptions) single faste...

unfortunately the shorting method does not work on tp 600e,600x is another matter,irrespective it gets annoying when one shelfs out legitimate funds to buy a notebook ,then only to find out some idiot put a password in the bios instead of removing and drilling out the hdds for upmost secutity come u...

sandra reports agp bus ver 1,*72 mghz agp clock from 108 fsb bus. max*supported 2x ,sideband supported=yes sideband enabled = no. fast writes enabled= no. direct x 8.1 w xp pro. ironically a hp 4150 non b with identical chipsets and similar speed cpu shows exactly the same and both are virtually ide...

I just found this forum and it looks like I will be visiting often. I have a 600e with the 366mhz processor. I am running linux. I am pretty experienced with hardware but not necessarily with laptops. I would like to upgrade to a little faster processor and have read most of the posts on this threa...

Sharedoc, thanx... is that mean that TP 390 not upgradeable to pIII mmc-2 processor...? :D got a tp390x running 600/750 speedstep cpu (sharedoc mods)no problems +full cache enabled in the bios too,go for it,compared to 400p11 its is a beaut upgrade.this laptop by the way has accepted every single m...

non b? yes ,the 4150(non b model),the laptop generally feels more responsive than the thinkpad 600e p111(cache enabled),to my surprise 8O though the 600 is more robust and versatile with the dock options. as you know the hp4150b sereis are pentium 3s but the non bs came with 300,366 and 400 p11 cpu...

8O the software worked perfect on a hp 4150 non b p11 laptop with a p111 500/650 cpu 650mgz is the fastest non b laptop i ever seen (p111 450 rumored to work)and for some wierd reason doesn't detect p111 or celeron 500 non speedstep cpu. the beauty part is that theres no need for cache program as th...

8) one can get good dvd playback from a 266mghz 600 any 4x and faster dvd rom with power dvd xp ver 4.0, drives set to udma in device manager and set the software to run at 600x800 at the lower bit settings.in win 98/me/2k ,xp pro seemed sluggier ,then again why run a 266 cpu or any pc for that matt...

I got rid of the memory stability problem by disabling the 32M PC66 memeory that is built in the motherboard. I found out that byte 2B of CMOS controls the SDRAM banks. Bit b0 disables internal 32M memory. By changing the content from 80 -> 81 the 32M is disabled. Now I have two 128 Sodimms working...

[quote="MarkieTheGadgetGuy"]I know this is MOSTLY a bios thread, but there is so much good stuff in here about processor upgrades that I hope you don't mind me posting my question here. Basically I was wondering how hard it would be to upgrade my TP 390x MMC-2 PIII 450mhz to the 850mhz ... and has a...

i used arctic silver 3 with the stock 600e heatsink + 810mghz and it only handles 15mins max on stress tests,conversely 600x heatsinks dont seem to fare any better either.700mghz max is the most any 600 sereis heatsink can cope during extended 60 min + stress tests. i am pondering on filing down the...

8O downloaded the files (am the 43rd visitor)i beleive theres fat 16 and fat 32 w9x,i do run winme +xp BOTH FAT 32,i am gonna try the on a tp 390x +a hp 4150 to see if it can work on other mmc2 powered speedstep modded cpu notebook. * sharedoc , i have 2 tp 600e mobos with password error +1x tp600e ...

[quote="Dr. Morg"]Is somebody installed MS Windows 2003 Server on TP600E? After installation I can not install PowerLeap and consequently, to enable L2 Cache!: ( Is there any other ways to enable L2 Cache? Also, I can not enabled a sound. Service Windows Audio has started, but in adjustments of a so...

[quote="Sharedoc"]600 does not help all the way, because bios is different. But 600 will help test the modded bios packing with the correct checksum. Will need anyway at final stages someone's 600E to use as a guinea pig. ----------- PCI bus will overclock with the ratio of the crystals. Also IDE bu...

To be honest, I don't see real need of 600E bios modding for PIII any more. There is a working solution for 127 error and L2 initializatin in Windows and Linux.There is a working solution to SpeedStep. The only thing that has not been solved is that after suspend/resume (Fn-F4) you have to set L2 o...
