you can see information about my pc.

2 days ago on may 6, I found a 3.0 ghz so i put instead of 2.8 ghz.

At first, it couldnot load windows 7. After seeing windows screen, it was restarting with bsod. So, i changed rams (i have 2x1 gb kingston , 2x1 other brands and 1 adata 512 mb and 4 slots in motherboard) in slots. Firstly, i tried all dual combinations with 2 rams in dual condition but it always restarted (i put always same slots in motherboard).

Then i tried some combinations with 3 rams. This time, i could see desktop but after some times, it was restarting.

BEfore upgrading CPU, with 2.8 ghz and with 2 x 1 gb kingston rams, there were no restarts. Rarely bsods. But now it restarts always.

I am adding my dump files as .zip t. I tried to install after may 6. Before may 6, i was trying to figure out which rams are good so i was trying combinations.

Also i saw "new driver installed for 3.0 ghz" in system tray. I dont know if this restarts are about CPU or are about new software.

For example now i am on same pc but in xp home edition, with 2 rams but no restarts. Or with 2 rams while it was restarting, i could go into xp again. Maybe xp doesnot force so much rams as windows 7 does, i dont know

I cant see so much difference between 3.0 and 2.8 so i can go back to 2.8. BUt i want to know if rams are motherboard have errrors.

mine is 100-g rev 4.0 but while booting, bios shows f5. I updated to last bios last year from floppy. But why does my speccy show f2?

also xp shows f2

and this is strange. i wanted to test my cpu with stress following this
CPU - Stress Test Using IntelBurnTest - Windows 7 Help Forums

but when i run hwinfo after installing, it restarted as soon as i click run. i treid 2times and restarted. I couldnot edit previous post to add this, because of that restart.

So maybe cpu is faulty?

Make sure the 3.0 CPU is listed here.

If me, I would return the computer back with all the original hardware and settings and see if it works properly again. If it does, make one change at a time, verifying all is good before moving on.

my cpu is that
m c '63
pntium4
3.00 ghz 1 m 800
sl79l costa rica
3410a042
3310a366
1136


probably in the list.

There is no original hardware. i changed lots of time.

i did not bios update like that. i put file into floppy and from bios menu i updated. Maybe i need also update while inside windows? bcause speecy doesnot show.

I meant to change it back to before you made all these recent changes and the problems started.

Updating via a floppy should work just fine.
 
If I am following you correctly, your problems started after you installed the 3.0 P4. So I think you should go back to your old processor and see if the problems go away.

yes problems are gone. I am on 2.8 ghz in windows 7 now. BUt as i wrote, with 3.0 , i could use xp in this computer.
 
I never said that!

What I am suggesting is your problems seem to have started after you made several changes to your computer. You installed that CPU, added RAM and upgraded drivers and the problem started. That suggests the problem might be with that CPU, or the motherboard/chipset, or the RAM. So I am suggesting you start over, but add or change one thing at a time so you can [hopefully] determine what is causing your problems.

If you put back in the 2.8GHz CPU and the problem went away, that is a pretty strong suggestion the 3.0 is either faulty, or your board does not support it fully.
