Just to throw a possible spanner in the works... Many eons ago, our Intel distributor told us that none of the 'overdrive' chips are SMP usable? - Hope this doesn't apply in your case? :( I have 2 x P-Pro 200's w/256k in my board at the moment... I have also read that the M/Board requires a BIOS upgrade in order to work with the newer/overdrive chips - have you tried this? -Karl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-smp" in the body of the message
