I have a 1000@1200 8.25 and I went into the bios and disabled the L2 ecc monitoring option and the L2 cache because from what I read in a other question it will help with the voltage???? I can make changes in my bios for the multiplier(I unlocked the L1 on my chip), the front bus, and the voltage... By disabling that option in a other menu in the bios does that allow the changes I made to the voltage settings work better? Please help brothers..... also my temp is 44c....

Think this won't work. L2 cache is necessary for proper function of your PC, makes it run faster. Disabling it will help you in no way to increase the effect of higher voltage. What you might have mistaken, is the overclocking of slot-A athlons, which DO have profits of lowering the L2 cache multiplyer (which is not available for socket A's. The ecc check isn't necessary in most of the cases, just leave it off. Don't think you are going to do something with your temps with the L2, so just enable it again.
