I have 2 500mhz celerons. Both are fv524rx500. The system boots with either cpu installed in either slot, but wont boot with both installed. I tried using both pc100 and pc133 ram and have no ide or fdd devices connected. Only a agp card for display. The lots are L0320574-0885 and L0250456-0271.
Any help apreciated.
boots 1 cpu but not 2

I got the system from a guy I was moving. I have no clue of it's history. from looking at it it looks like all the connections are still good and when I try to boost the voltage that doesn't work either.
I've had a sugestion on the abit forum that the bus speeds might be diffrent, but if they are the same model could this be?
I'm happy with one processor but would love to get smp working. Any ideas?

Hold the phones...
1st...Look at the capacitors for bulging/leakage/standing verticaly...not crooked on the board.
2nd...what is the condition of your PSU? It may not be working up to spec.
If caps are all ok, try an ISA video card, if you can scrounge one up. Ive heard some AGP cards don't like dually systems.
Let us know the results.

There are *almost* no bad BP6s. There are mostly bad caps.
