Intel Core 2 Quad 2.66 Ghz 6MB L2 Cache issue on Windows XP PRO
My Hardware configuration is:
Gigabyte X38-DS5 Mainboard Intel Core 2 Quad 2.66 Ghz 6 MB L2 Cache Nvidia GeForce 9500 GT Kingston 2*2 Gb ram WD 1 TB HDD My problem is, i have installed Windows XP Pro on my system and the drivers but Windows Xp Pro dont recognises the CPU as is i'm goint to the device manager and open the cpu section there writes 4 times "Intel CPU" On the system prooerties General section writes "Intel Pentium III Xeon Processor 2,67 Ghz" Is there any system compatibility with xp pro and the cpu or another hardware? Thanks...

Thanks... Download and try the Intel Processor Identification Utility. http://www.intel.com/support/process.../CS-014921.htm If that gives the wrong answer, then there could be something wrong with the processor itself. ******* Does your Windows XP have a Service Pack installed ? What Service Pack are you using. I'm using SP3 at the moment. In Device Manager, mine shows two entries like this Intel Core 2 Duo CPU E4700 @ 2.60GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU E4700 @ 2.60GHz In the Properties, the driver is listed as "intelppm.sys", but that probably isn't what is identifying the processor itself. Under Computer, mine says "ACPI Multiprocessor PC". What does yours say ? Paul

Thanks... I have a Quad 2.66GHz and GA-X38-DQ6 Have not checked what Windows XP displays but I have used CPUZ and CoreTemp. CPUZ (CPUID) read the processor type and clock speed correctly. CoreTemp will give your more accurate CPU temperature as it read the internal temp sensors built into the processor and not the motherboard sensors. Out of curiosity was brand and speed memory are you using. Also are all the slots populated and does your motherboard read the SPD info correctly?

Thanks... You need to also install the motherboard chipset drivers These drivers tend to tell XP how to "read" the motherboard components correctly.
