oops I booted at 5 x 100 yesterday for some extreme power! Normally run: 12.5 x 180 (is also stable at 12.5 x 184) 1.74V and 1.85V respectively Gigabyte 7vaxp t-bred 2100+ 0303 single 512 corsair pc3200 at lowest settings

I think Intel and AOL will merge one day......hahaha

Those are pretty high temps but as long as it's stable I wouldn't care too much. I ran an overlcocked tbird at 1456Mhz for a long time but my temps never got over 123F and were usually 113F while gaming. You might want to look into a better cpu cooler or improve the air flow in your case.

1) Open your boot.ini file in notepad. It is on the root of your xp install. If you can't see the file then make the appropriate changes in folder view settings so that you can see all files. Once you have it open in notepad you should see two lines under [operating systems]. Each line shows...

Yeah really, I doubt any scanned image will compare to a good macro from a digital camera. That's what I did when i got my 2100+ so I didn't have to write it down.

oh well, just saw other reply for dxdiag. anyway most of the time it will just say pentiumIII in dxdiag anyway.

also: Start/Run/dxdiag

Ok guys, I appologize for the reply I posted. It was out of line and a bit too opinionated. I normally don't run my mouth as such on a forum, guess I was just in the wrong mood at the time.

AYHJA athlons were good overclockers. Quite a few of them were able to run at 1.5+Ghz. I had a 1.2Ghz@1.456Ghz for a long time but my original kt133 chipset held it back I think. I don't think there is any difference that would require a different fan other than one usually needed for overclocking.

On any Mobo without fixed pci/agp settings you are OCing based on pci settings. Once you have the pci bus around 40Mhz you are asking for trouble with corrupt data etc. especially with agp 4x enabled. I dunno what memory you have but most likely your pci buses will limit it first.

Throw away the @#@#@ng pencils and go get a conductive pen. It still amazes me that sooo many ding witties used pencils on their processors even thow "it worked" for alot of people. what a half ass mod....

It depends on what revision GB board you have. I have a ga-7vaxp rev.1.1 and had to do the L3 mod on my 2100+ to get the lower multipliers to work. A friend of mine has the rev. 1.2 and the lower multipliers work fine on his. (they changed the fsb switches on that rev.) Update 6/30/02:-...

This thread isn't dead yet...lol. I've been wondering if FSB speeds are limited to the processor or the chipset/memory config. On this GA-7vaxp it seems to be limited to around 376fsb even though the memory is synced. and below its 400mhz spec. So I'm wondering if it's the chipset that won't...

lol, your http://www.anandtech.com/myanandtech.html link isn't quite right....
