processor cache deciding to disable itself


Recommended Posts

yeah.. on my k6-2 400 it seems that the cache has turned itself off... diagnostic programs say it's disabled and even moo.dll says so too. So... my question is... how do i re-enable it? there is absolutely no option for it in the bios at all... or could this be a sign it burned itself out and it's time for a new processor? (and no i didn't over clock this one)

oh and... please don't move this, this doesn't have anything to do with hardware compatibility at all... plus.. this is the general forum... you know... where anything goes...

Sorry - any post that relates to a section we have dedicated to is moved there. Compatibility is just a sub-reference, as inferred by the parentheses. However, since anything goes in the general forum, I left a link. :D :)

'Hardware (compatibility)

Need help with your Hardware? This is the place to be'

    • A lot of your issues seem to be part of all the smart tech that's in any current car today. I too don't like the reliance on any of this smart tech, we have 2024 Ford Rangers at work with terrible systems for climate control and media. And there have been times when, stupidly relying on the reversing camera more than the mirrors, that I nearly reversed into a wall, because the display was showing half a second lag, and it seems all the emergency breaking was lagging too. No impact, but I managed to stop with about 1cm clearance from the tow ball because I finally checked my mirrors. Too much beeping, too much reliance on the screen and a computer that's just going to fail after 8 years. This is the era of end of life cars, which fail because of end of support software updates rather than mechanical issues. Now if my 2010 Yaris was electric, that would be the ultimate electric vehicle. None of the smarts, all of the power!
    • Why is it all of the sudden throwing ads everywhere on WhatsApp when they've done it all along without any ads? Their parent company makes plenty of money. Not everything has to make money when the parent company is worth billions. They're just greedy. As far as YouTube, it's absurd to charge for a premium service when people just want to watch a few videos. Charge a reasonable amount for an ad-free experience unless they want to watch 4K movies like they do on Netflix. Back to WhatsApp, they've done it this whole time, so them forcing ads will make users use other platforms.
    • Yeh, an alert human driver would have stopped, or at least drastically slowed down BECASUE there was a red stop sigh and a flipping yellow school bus, which in the context of the USA means kids may be around, but even being from another country, even I know that's a school bus!! It will be difficult for autonomous vehicles to understand the nuances that each country, yet alone each state/province/town has. There's obviously the general rules, but contexts for particular elements of certain streets also help. It's partly why many people don't like "out of towners" as they aren't used to or know the roads, and while this may become possible down the track for autonomous vehicles eventually, it could end badly for some. Lets hope they don't say it's all in the name of progress..
    • lol. If you're referring to Co-pilot it can be UNINSTALLED!!!!! If you're referring to Recall its... 1) OPT-IN 2) CAN ALSO BE UNINSTALLED
