Where can I get this program for my BE6-II to raise the vcore voltage for my slot1?
The Hippies Hardware sight has been closed down.
Thanks....and hurry :)

Search engine to the rescue. Try HERE. (http://msnhomepages.talkcity.com/CerfSt/kpahh/ABITBP6-E.htm)

The link is in tiny text about a third of the way down.

Thanks Newbie Doo!! I'm in the same boat w/ a S1 1.65v cB0 chip running on my BE6 II.... I'll have to check this out. I think an extra .05v would do wonders for my 600E.

Too bad I can't use this w/ the Asus mobo, too...LOL

If I have time this weekend, I am going to push my poor overworked C2-600 and see if I can get to over 1Gig with stability. Then I will run the comparison between the watercooling system and the Glaciator (if I can get it to mount on the slocket).

How does this program work? If I set it to 2.00 and then rebooted and went into bios, will it show the voltage to be 2.00? Or do I have to set it everytime I rebooted? Its not working for me because I already did the volt mod to the mother board and no matter what i set it to, it says 2.05, although its actually at 1.95 in the bios.

The Glaciator will mount on the slotket, with one modification. You'll need to take a couple of pairs of pliers, and straighten out the ZIF socket release lever.

If it's metal, and bent so that it rises above the top of the socket itself, it will hit the base of the Glaciator. Just straighten it out, so that it sits level or below the surface of the socket. The rest is "tab "A"/slot "B" easy...=)

MR B, if you only need .05V extra... a voltage hack will still work on the slot 1 CPU's...
and it doesnt get any easyier with a cBo, 2.05 will be your new default Vcore

First, thanks for the link Newbie_Doo. Just remember peeps, these progs are board specific so if anyone knows where to D/L the others please post. The ROA link given will only work with the BP6, still need the proggies for BE6-2 et al :)
As I recall, Hippen had made ROA for boards up to the BX 133. Now we all know that this is not needed for boards that use the Softmenu II( with these the re-flash trick works) But any ROA for boards using Softmenu III I would appreciate so I can archive them and have available to those in need :D

Sorry for the late reply but......

Thanks to a wonderful board member that gave me the program to over ride Abits bios vcore voltage. No soldering and no covering pins on this slot1.
Running my Abit BE6-II 2.0 at a 1.95v (can go way higher). That puts my cpu at the 1ghz mark.
It only works on BE6 or BX-133 boards (so i'm told)
The only problem is that you have to run this program AFTER you get out of the bios. Any bios changes brings you back to the default voltages on the bios. So you need to at least boot at whatever mhz you want to run. Then go into dos and run this program off of A: drive.

This is a copy of the instructions:


"STANDARD DISCLAIMER

The author of this program accepts no responsibility for damages resulting
from the use of this product. This software is provided "AS IS", and you,
its user, assume all risks when using it.

WHAT RISE OF ABIT IS?

Rise of Abit is program which patches new CPU core voltage setting in CMOS.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Run RoA and select new voltage for CPU

2. Shut down and start-up your computer, sometimes you have to power-off your PSU before it works (This means you'll have to unpower it, remove mains cable or switch it off for few seconds)

3. Now your CPU should use voltage you selected whith RoA.

Changing bios settings will restore old core voltage (selected in SoftMenu)

THIS VERSION WORKS ONLY ON BX133 (also works on BE6-II)"


I'll email it to anyone that wants it. ;)

It has alot more adjustments than the one the link was posted for.
