For 939 a Manchester is a dual core, the single core version of it being a Venice.
X2 5800 is obviously AM2.

Damn, true. But Venice is completely a different chip being a physical single-core. According to Wikipedia, Manchester was the core of 3600+, 3800+, 4200+ and 4600+ X2 CPUs, and with one core disabled in 3200+ and 3500+ CPUs.

I am running into a no post situation. Tried multiple sticks of ram and known good video cards, multiple PSUs with the same result: Fans spin up and green indicator lights up on the mainboard, no beeps and no post on the monitor. Not sure what to try next. I reset the CMOS and removed the battery. Still nothing.

I am leaning towards the idea it's either the board or the CPU. I just wish I had a known good CPU to troubleshoot this problem.

Overall in this situation sounds like the MB

Right there with you. I'm thinking a language barrier might be at play here.

Ruru · Nov 19, 2018

Reminds me of google translate used three times from language to another...

But I have the same AM2 AGP motherboard on my shelf.

Given this guys user name, he might even be drunk and using google translate.

Stay safe out there guys, don't drink and translate. :toast:

What I can understand of this, I have A64 X2 6000+ and 7600 GS AGP with it, paired with 4GB Corsair DDR2-800.

I don’t think he understands this is a project build not a daily driver.

eidairaman1 · Nov 19, 2018

I had my cpu at 2.2GHz (400FSB)

You didn't experience FPS increase in line with CPU OC ?

I get the same feeling...

johnspack · Nov 19, 2018

Ug, the memories. My last amd was a 5600+ powered system. Nforce 590 sli I think... god, good times.

storm-chaser · Nov 20, 2018

Well guys it looks like I was able to track down a good working cpu so we can eliminate that and narrow down the problem even further.

Gotta love it when the online community reaches out to help. Unity for the win.

storm-chaser · Nov 25, 2018

Just a quick update... looks like the motherboard might have some bad caps. So we will try the new CPU and if that doesn't resolve it I will send the motherboard out to have a couple of the suspect capacitors replaced.

I am going to get a PCI debug reader to see if we can further narrow the scope here. If I can find out where the system is hanging we might be able to find a good resolution here. Here is the part:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/PCI-Debug-...h=item58fbd2db07:g:F7YAAOSwRJxZf9iS:rk:1:pf:0

Once that is done we will proceed with the cap replacement if that turns out to be the next logical step.

One way or another we will get this rig back online!

Good to see they got there safely.
Not the greatest of chips but will get you started.

I had HyperX 2x256 kit with bh-5 chips, ran at 2-2-2-5-1T DDR540 with only 3.3V

Damn, my TCCD liked more voltage than that

Chloe Price said:
Manchester was a 90nm S939 single-core, dual-core chip with one core disabled.

Does anyone remember the deleted thread that was on XtremeSystems where guys were trying to enable the disabled cores and cache, as well as unlock mulltipliers on S939? I actually have them saved somewhere, I didn't have internet at home at the time so I'd download the pages at an internet cafe.

I'd also love to know why the thread was deleted.

wasn't only certain motherboards allowed to do such a thing?

No, they never came right. I followed that thread from start to finish, there was a lot of speculation and exciting experiments, but nothing fruitful.

[XC] Oj101 · Dec 18, 2018

If anyone is interested, here are the files I downloaded more than a decade ago before the thread was removed.
