Its my first thread here, so hallo to everyone:)
I just received my DUAL Acorp 6A815EPD yesterday. Before that i was using an Abit VP6 with 2 Pentium 3 FCPGA CPU's 700(7x100)@933Mhz. Unfortunately my VP6 died for unknown reason.
SO i decided to get the Dual Acorp and overclock my CPu's on that mobo.
The Cpu's can post fine at 700Mhz but when i set the jumper on the motherboard for 133Mhz FSB, i still get 100Mhz.I think that the motherboard will read the FSB directly from CPU's.
I ' ve read somewhere that i can fool the motherboard to think that i am using 133Mhz CPU with a pin trick.
As i found from web there are 2 pins on the CPU which are responsible for the Proccesors frequency BSEL0 and BSEL1.
SO there are some combinations you can do with these 2 pins in order to get the 133FSB.I found some sites on the WEB but i am not exactly sure what i have to do.

dtakias,

Hello again.

Looks like you did the research. You need to make BSEL0 and BSEL1 "on" or a '1'.

Now we need someone to answer how to do this.

Like I said with my cellery, I had to break a connection to go from 66 to 100, but that doesn't make sense according to the link you posted, unless breaking off a pin causes an "on" or '1' condition.

Good Luck,

Don
 
EASY

Wrap BSEL0 and BSEL1 with a copper strand of speaker wire. This will allow you to copy the high signal from the BSEL0 to BSEL1 and trick the MOBO to think it has a 133 signal coming in. I figured this out on a P4 :cool: and it worked so i think you should be ok. Read the VID pin modding article first here and apply its lessons to this modd.

Good Luck and tell us how it went :D
 
SUCCESS

I have managed to get my Acorp running succesfully my 700@933 with 133FSB.I am very happy.I am gonna sleep now because i am very tired.I will post informations and pictures tomorrow.
