That was certainly the situation when I attempted to put the original 650MHz
MMC2 from my upgraded 600X into a spare 500MHz 600X I had. It was only "seen" as
a 500MHz CPU and that's all it would run at. Nor would the Speedstep apps. from
the IBM or Intel sites load and run correctly. (Good God, was that really almost
2 years ago!!!)
Perhaps things _have_ changed with the release of the new BIOS for the 450MHz
and 500MHz 600Xs.
But, as I said, I'll be attempting the heart transplant again later this week
and will keep everyone updated.
Regards,
James
