L2 cache not enabled

[fuyupps]

I ran a test on PCPITSTOP and my L2 cache was not enabled or not functioning properly. It suggested to enable my L2 cache within the bios. However, there was not a setting for this in the BIOS and I there is not a jumper setting for this as well. I also updated to the latest VIA 4 in 1 drivers. Could this be a faulty processor or motherboard? Is there other test or settings that can be done to correct this?

1.2 AMD Athlon Thunderbird
256 DDR RAM
7200 Radeon
Gigabyte KT133 MB

I'm not familiar with PCPitStop, but I would tend not to believe the results of that particular benchmark - having your L2 disabled would seriously affect the performance of your PC.

I think the latest version of Sandra will tell you that your L2 is working

.....not really sure what this has to do with video cards

I did not mean to post this here. I didn't realize I was in the vidao card forum.

haha if it was disabled, your windows would take years to start up =P

Some of these applications work fine on a lot of setups but even one's like Sandra and 3D/PCMark can misreport some systems so I'd double check with 1 or 2 other programs first before panickin'. ;)
