This is a follow up video to the repair of the DFI P5BTX/L motherboard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eH1f1b1Ha0. In this video we are discovering undocumented jumper settings, patching the bios with the Bios Patcher tool and trying out a K6-2 400 and a K6-2+ 550MHz. We run a couple of benchmarks and compare the results against those published by Phil's Computer Lab.
