Hi
I have an older Dell Pentium II 350mhz computer with me. I recently got a
400 PII for free. as my computer manual said that I could go till 450 I
plonked the new cpu in.
But my system still shows it as a PII 350. is there anyway, i can change the
settings so that my system reconizes it. I tried thru the normal bios but
there no such thing there. i just read that I need to go into maintenance
mode. As i don't have much info on this, I am afraid to blow it up
I would be thankful if someone can help me with my problem. Also when i
check the system properties in windows, it shows my older cpu as a PII
having stepping 2 while if i put the new one it shows step 1. I can't seem
to make head - or - tail out of it.
Thankyou in advance to anyone who can help me solve these problems.
