All right, i've checked the main unlocking article, and read the things in it. But I cannot find [or i've missed] a good link to unlocking an AMD Athlon with a conductive pen.

Is it any different than using pencil, super glue, etcetera?

Does anyone have a direct link to an unlocking guide with a conductive pen?

If its possible...download the XP unlocking video. I think you can still get it from Toms Hardware *EDIT*HERE . I believe there is a sticky in this forum for it. If not, PM me and I'll send it to you somehow. This is about the best source you will find to see how to unlock the XP. I used a conductive pen too but I actually just bled the ink and used a brush like in the video. Thats what all the guys I know do. Anyway, good luck, hope I helped out.

*EDIT* Figured I could give you a link. :rolleyes:

I don't have an Athlon XP/MP.. just a normal Athlon... :(

will this still apply? I'd imagine there would be differences in going about unlocking them, but, maybe not.
