1.8a Northwood fsb locked? overclock help FOUND

[Mark5000]

I have an Abit TH7II-Raid with a 1.8a GHz P4. I changed my user settings to 133MHz FSB in the bios, but the computer posts with 1800MHz still. CPU-z also shows 1800MHz. What am I missing?

All P4's are locked except for the the Engineering Samples which you more than likely do not have. Since your using Rambus, overclocking will really suck. Does your board even have PCI/agp lock?

yes it has AGP/PCI lock. P4 multipliers are locked, not FSB.

possibly it detects that it cant post at 133cpu freq, so it just automatically reverts back to 100

try going to like 102 or 105 and see if that works?
