I think this is not what I expect ... I tested x86info and here is my
output-snip:
FID changes will happen
VID changes will happen
Current VID multiplier code: 1.300
Current FSB multiplier code: 13.0
Voltage ID codes: Maximum=1.300V Startup=1.300V Currently=1.300V
Frequency ID codes: Maximum=13.0x Startup=5.0x Currently=13.0x
Decoding BIOS PST tables (maxfid=14, startvid=e)
Found PSB header at 0x4018f4e0
Table version: 0x12
Flags: 0x0 (Mobile voltage regulator)
Settling Time: 100 microseconds.
Has 28 PST tables. (Only dumping ones relevant to this CPU).
PST:26 (@0x4018f6bc)
cpuid: 0x780 fsb: 100 maxFID: 0x14 startvid: 0xe
num of p states in this table: 5
FID: 0x4 (5.0x [500MHz]) VID: 0xe (1.300V)
FID: 0x8 (7.0x [700MHz]) VID: 0xe (1.300V)
FID: 0xc (9.0x [900MHz]) VID: 0xe (1.300V)
FID: 0x0 (11.0x [1100MHz]) VID: 0xe (1.300V)
FID: 0x14 (13.0x [1300MHz]) VID: 0xe (1.300V)
Connector type: Socket A (462 Pin PGA)
I think the FIDs are OK, but the VIDs are all equal (but "VID changes
will happen") - this means the cpu consumes to much power :-(
My idea was that people with a correct PST table for the ATHLON 1500+
(and other CPUs) can give the right values, because in my opinion this
values are CPU specific and not PST/BIOS specific....
Ciao Lars
