Hello everyone
I pulled off an AMD Mobile K6-2-P (AMD-K6-2/450ADK) from a bricked Toshiba Satellite 2140CDS.
I suspect this CPU to be fried, but I could be wrong though.
As the title says, I would like to know how I can determine whether this CPU is broken or not.
I'm looking for a approach, that does not require me to put this CPU in one of my socket 7 systems, as I don't want to risk destroying them.
Are there perhaps some specific values that can be messured with a multimeter, that tells me whether there is something wrong with it?
My first approach was to look for shorts/ check for continuity, by comparing each individual pin with a functional K6-2 CPU, with the package number 26351.
Frankly I just have too little patience, so I hope that anyone has a solution, that takes less time and is more reliable.
If this CPU is in fact working, is it possible to run this CPU in a desktop super socket 7 system?
Thanks in advance.
Any help is highly appreciated.
I apologize in case there are typos, I was in a hurry.
