cpu update

[Tony Sheehan]

I have a PC which has a AMD 1900 XP cpu and a Gigabyte 7VTXE+ motherboard. I decided to upgrade to a 2600 Barton chip which seemed OK according to the Gigabyte site.

However, after installing the chip my system crashes frequently (and randomly?) often when opening Outlook Express. Also the system says the speed of the chip is 1533 MHz but I cannot find out how to update this.

I'd appreciate any help.

Cheers
Tony
