hi, I have a notebook Compaq 6720s with CPU Intel Celeron 550, I'm not going to open it to check and read written on the die the chipset is to be {GLE960,GME965}.

- The first platform (GLE960) support 553-MHZ FSB with max CPU Intel Celeron 550 2.00-GHz processor, 1-MB L2 cache, 533 MHz FSB

- The second platform (GME965) support 800-MHz FSB with mac CPU Intel Core 2 DUO T9300 2.50-GHz processor, 6-MB L2 cache, 800-MHz front side bus (FSB),

 

dmesg of linux repoxt apggart -intel 965GME/GLE  as nopaste: http://nopaste.corradoroberto.it/pVstAJ?prettify

the only way is to disassemble the laptop, the Northbridge is GLE960 not support FSB 800MHZ and relative CPU T8300/T9300 C2D... I want to cry...

Hi, Roberto:

 

Since your notebook has the celeron processor, it has a different motherboard (GLE960 chipset), than those that come with the pentium processors.

 

You cannot run any processor in your PC with a higher FSB speed than 533 Mhz.

 

Here is the parts list...

I wonder if you could install the Intel® Pentium® Processor T2390 1M Cache, 1.86 GHz, 533 MHz FSB?

 

It is in the same Merom processor family as yours.

You're very welcome.

 

Unfortunately I wouldn't be able to help you with that issue if the file I posted yesteday didn't work.
