ok I have another issue, a Celeron with a standrd 66BUS, it won't work even on an 75MHZ BUS, so what's the problem here, the voltage is 2.0V, so what do i do? do i raise the voltage to... let's say 2.4 ?? is it just the mainboard or something else???

the cooling is also standard issue, but do you think it might work if i put it at 100MHz BUS?? (and not touching the voltage)

again, that's it....

You will not get to 100fsb with that chip. Assuming your cooling is good, raise the vcore to 2.10 and see if 75mhz works, then 2.20 That's the limit for me, to run it any higher brings too many things into play and won't be worth the gain/benefit.

I have a pair of C500's on a Abit BP6. They run at 600mhz 80FSB with 2.1 volts. Cooling is done by 2 Alpha Pal 6035's. That is about the max you will get out of the core unless you supercool :)
