Guys, Got a Soltek SL-75KAV mobo, with a 750 AMD. I've just learnt that if I upgrade the BIOS to Q11, I can slap a 2600 in! *big cheesy grin* Has anyone done this, and can they give me any tips and a good feeling about what I'm about to do? The website says run awdflash with /sn/py/cc options. sn doesn't backup the original BIOS, is this a good idea, or should I leave this out, and backup the original, for just in case? cc clears the cmos data, do I really want this? I thought I'd upgrade the BIOS before I buy the chip (and cooler), so that if it doesn't work, I can go back to the original BIOS, and I haven't wasted any money. I can get a 2000 for �47, but a 2600 is �79. Is it worth the extra dosh? Is there much more bang in a 2600 over a 2000? Will I _finally_ be able to run GPL at full whack, after this? Thanks. R.
