Hey, recently got a 700 mhz duron with Fic-Az11e with voltage meters on it. Now, what i am wondering is, has anybody had this mobo before or now, and if so, what is the key to overclcoking it? And 1 MOre Thing, Please Answer, are all voltage meter setting the same for all mobos? Thanx

Just had a look at the info on that board at the fic homepage - looks as though it should be fine. I like the look of the 'clockometer' feature, should make it even easier to oc than Abit's softmenu (assuming it's as stable) - changing fsb and multiplier from windows, cool :)
To be able to change the multiplier you need to unlock the cpu, otherwise changing the multiplier settings on your board won't have any effect. Here's some guides, as long as you follow the instructions carefully there shouldn't be any problems: http://www.cotty.btinternet.co.uk/unlock.htm http://www.athlonoc.com/unlocking.htm http://www4.tomshardware.com/cpu/00q3/000711/index.html
The Tom's Hardware article makes it sound more complicated than it is - as your mobo allows you to change the cpu multiplier, you only need to join the L1 bridges. Ignore the rest.
I'm not sure about what you mean by 'volt meters' though - do you mean voltage jumpers, or bios settings?
