I HAVE CHANGED MY PROCESSOR 600MHz TO 933MHz. NOW I HAVE A PROBLEM THAT MY COMPUTER IS HANGED AFTER 3 OR 5 SECONDS. MY CPU MANFUCTURED BY GATEWAY INTEL CHIPSET 810.

- Stop Overclocking your CPU.
- Make sure your Heat Sink is placed properly above the processor.
- Clean the Processor fan, Heat Sink and other peripherals.
- Use High Speed fans.
- Use CPU Heat Sink Paste in the processor.
- Fix OS registry with reliable program like I always use Reginout.
- Shut down your computer at least two hour a day.

Hope these tips will help.

The eMachines eTower 600is uses an Intel Celeron III processor that operates at a maximum frequency rate of 600MegaHertz. (600MHz)

http://www.emachines.com/support/product_support.html?cat=Desktops&subcat=eTower%20Series&model=eTower_600is

The Intel Celeron 600 uses a Socket 370 processor socket.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Celeron_microprocessors#.22Coppermine-128.22_.28180_nm.29

There is a locking arm on the side of the Socket 370 processor socket, that is unlocked by easing the arm over to one side to clear a lock tab, then the arm is lifted up to remove the processor.

Example of a Socket 370 processor socket,

The eMachines eTower 600is uses an Intel 810 chipset, for the motherboard chipset.
[Chip and Chipset are slang terms used for Integrated Circuit, or IC]

The Intel 810 chipset, supports processors with a 66MegaHertz Front Side Bus. (66MHz FSB), or 100MHz FSB.

In an additional link, I will give a recommendation of where to buy an Intel Celeron 600, that uses a 66MHz FSB.
I'm not advertising for this place, it's just a place I have used, and have had good results.

Also information on the Intel 810 chipset.

You could also use an Intel Celeron 700MHz processor, but better still you could use an Intel Pentium III 933MHz processor.

Pentium's typically have Two times, the L2 cache that a comparable Celeron has.The more L2 cache a processor has, the faster it's going to process information.

I also know it will work because out in my shop I have an eMachines T1090, that has an Intel 810 chipset, uses a Socket 370 processor socket, and has an Intel Pentium III 933MHz processor in it.
(Made in 2001, and still works good to this day)

The Intel Pentium III 933MHz processor uses a 100MHz FSB.
The Intel 810 chipset supports processors that have either a 66MHz FSB, or a 100MHz FSB.

If you are not familiar with computer hardware technology, then I have just thrown a whole lot of information at you that is unfamiliar.

Should you like me to break down the information, I would be glad to. Just state so in a Comment.

wanted to change cpu, but as soldered on motherboard - not worth the effort

hi,
according to gateway 450mhz is the largest that can be put into your system. The biggest performance gain will be found in a RAM upgrade. The difference between a 350MHz & 450MHz CPU will be minimal & maybe not even noticeable. But if you already have another CPU or can pick one up for a few bucks, it wouldn't hurt...I wouldn't spend more than $5 though.
Your best bet would be to try to determine the make/model of the motherboard, then find out what the max CPU is it can handle. See if a local computer shop has any used parts or if you have a flea market in your area, you might wanna look there. good luck and appy computering!

This is a designed feature in the pentium M processors; it will work at a reduced speed to save power consumption until the need arises. To turn off this feature, go into your computer's BIOS and turn off the power save feature of the cpu.

Thanks and please take a moment to rate this solution with a fixya rating. Thanks!

yes, to 1.1 gigs is not difficult, much higher than that and you would have to upgrade the BIOS software.

You might have damaged the CPU/ motherboard during the process of overclocking.

Check your CPU on other compatible mobo.

Check your mobo documentation properly & set the jumpers rightly. If that doesn't help, you will have to replace the mobo.

you should upgrade computers, because a pentium 2 and 3 wont do ****.

What type or modelof motherboard did you use now?

According to this review, you can upgrade as far as a 2 GHz P4-M at least; http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,669029,00.asp Other than that, i have been unable to find the details of your motherboard - if you can post the make and model (should be printed on it somewhere) then I would hope to find a more complete list of compatible and incompatible processors. Gateway themselves no longer offer online info or support for this model, but the motherboard details should enable me to find out what you need to know. Waiting for your post :)
