I've got the k7s5a rev 3.1.
Bought a 2400+ XP, Thorton Core on ebay, first: No Post at all.
After putting some new thermo-paste on the processor -> Boots as 2400 mhz duron (wtf?)
that means 24x100Mhz=2400! way too high multiplier...i dont know why.
anyway, PC stopped after recognizing IDE drives. it really drove me nuts!
tried all bioses, cleaned the board and the cpu... didnt help.

I bought a 2800+ (266fsb) which doesn't seem to work, after fitting the cpu and turning the power on nothing happens; the power and harddrives led are on but there is no BIOS screen or video signal of any kind [monitor goes to stand-by].

It works but when a High Definition (HD) signal is received the processor saturates and the picture and sound just stops and starts. According to the specs on the Air2PC card it only requires a Pentium III 600 MHz processor for HD processing. I have tried adding memory, Windows 2000, XP and Ubuntu. All with the same results. Any suggestions?

my K7S5A cant remember the installed processor-type. It works with a 2600+ and if i switch off the PC, it starts as a Duron 1400 on the next morning.
I changed the little battery on the board, but the problem still exists.

What would be a good "Bang for the Buck" upgrade of this CPU? I'm mostly concerned with value as I don't want to put too much money into an aging system.

It would also be nice if the new CPU would be compatible with my current Thermaltake Volcano 5 Heatsink/Fan.

Any suggestions?
