View Full Version : Wire trick impossible on a ST6R mobo?

Thus my p3 cannot go above 1.825V (limited @1.3G)
My p3 has a voltage of 1.75V by default (cd0 stepping)
I linked Vid1 to Vss w/ a coppper wire to set the voltage to 1.85V
=> the comp don't boot but make bips :(
the same happens when I wired Vid2 to Vss (to achieve a volatage of 1.95v)

is it the same w/ you?
does that mean that I won't be able to raise the volatge of my future Tualatin? :(

Make sure you did everything right ... hmmm, and take a look at this (http://www.overclockers.com/tips630/) :).

I already did it before on my slot1 p3 750 and on my cel2 633
so I know how to do it ..
I dit it in 2 ways: by linking the vids together and by "putting" the wire in the holes of the socket ..
So I don't think I did sthing wrong ..
But I would like someone to do it on a i815EP mobo (ST6,TUSL2..)so that I know if the pb is due to me or to the mobo

Sounds like you are connecting the correct pins for the desired voltage. Look at the pic and make sure you are connecting the proper pins. Make sure you're at the correct corner of the chip. If all your double checking proves you done the wire connections correctly, then probably your motherboard does not support those voltages. Some boards adjust voltage automatically. Maybe the BIOS locks up when it receives a default voltage signal that it's not programed for (i.e. 1.85v or 1.95v). Sorry, that's about all I can think of right now.

Most tualatin boards use vrm 8.5 specification and have a max voltage output of 1.85 by the circuit design.
