Hi guys
First Of all i want to thanks anyone that could give me a hand on this issue, my problem is: I bought an Amd FX-53 a few days ago from a friend, my board is a msi k8n neo2 platinum 54g, i installed the cpu normaly,booted my system normaly, everything was normal and quite fast, once i had everything checked out, i went to the bios to modify the multiplier of the cpu, but only the default one works (12x), i tried 10x,11x,13x and nothing, the computer didn`t boot, tried the recent 1.6 bios and the problem remains the same, everything else is working fine, can anyone help me out im desperate
I have no idea what else to do :confused: :confused: :confused:

Msi k8n neo2 platinum
amd Fx53
1gb ocz pc4000 vx whit ddr booster
x800xt pe
Ocz Modstream 520w

i had a 3500+ winchester installed last week and the multip. worked fine

Thanks to all in advance

welcome to the XtremeSystems.org ! :toast: good to see ya here ;)

Sorry i can't help you, I've never read any posts about the multipliers not being enabled and its never happened to me. I'm sure someone will offer a solution or suggestions. If you have already tried a different bios then that would be my only idea.

Hey thanks anyway dude.

I know, its a strange problem, i never heard of it myself!!! this is frustrating :rolleyes:

he scammed you with a non FX?

lol that's the only way I could figure the thing not liking anything besides stock multi, but you said you tried lower multis too =/

Hmm strange indeed

post a cpu-z screen shot, lets make sure it is what you think it is....http://www.majorgeeks.com/download425.html

then press print scrn then go to ms paint then save it as a .jpeg file and post it....

only telling you this incase you don't know

That is very odd. I had an FX-53 awhile ago, and the multi's worked fine on my Neo2 plat. Could it be he gave you a 3800+ thinking it was a 53? They both run at 2.4ghz.

after sleeping on it the only thing I could think of would be broken/bent pin(s) ?

I can assure its a Fx53, i tried removing the cpu and installed it again, the result was the same, tonight i will post some screens of cpuz and other stuff

Thanks Guys for replying

this is what i can do whit the multi. 12x there`s nothing more i can do, im sure i can take the mems a lot more but not whit this multi, and as you see is a fx53, i think there`s no doubthttp://members.netmadeira.com/marcialfernandes/lol3.jpg

damn tha's too bad :( sorry bro .....though compliments on ur color scheme

sorry i didn`t understand your reply i found nemo

come on guys give me some help here

Try a bios flash and CMOS clear.

Try altering multi in bios rather than windows.

It should work... cant think of many other reasons why it wouldnt.

In your BIOS did you have the lower multiplier locked?
Use the +/- bottons on your keyboard to change multiplier in BIOS rather than the top and down arrows to see that the multipliers are unlock upward and downward.

i tried diferent bios, resets a couple of times (jumper and removing the battery for a couple of minutes), i have the multipliers 4x.....to ...25x unlocked, i change to one of them, usually the nearest ones like 10x,11x,and 13x, i save the changes in bios, try to restart, and the system doesn`t boot, i have to reset bios to the system boot up in 12x multiplier, in windows i try to change in clockgen the system hangs :(:(:(
