My MoBo allows FSB to be manipulated, but not the clock or voltage. What happens if I unlock my Athlon 900, does it stay at Multiplier of 9?
Which O/S is a btter environment for O/cing Windows 2000 or ME?


Acorp O/C MoBo
Athlon 900 200fsb Socket A

If your board lacks any and all means of multiplier setting and you want to increase the multiple then instead of connecting all of the L1 bridges to unlock it you should connect some and disconnect others to have it at a fixed, locked higher multiple. There's an article with a chart at http://www6.tomshardware.com/cpu/00q3/000711/index.html that explains which L1's to open and which ones to close. As to weather just unlocking all the L1's would leave it at 9 or not I've no idea.

Hope that helps.
