A7V133 Multiplier Problems...

[Doug117]

Howdy all. Now this baffles me. After getting my 1GHz Week 15 AXIA up and running (first at 7.5x100=750), i turned on the 133 FSB and booted fine at 1GHZ (7.5*133). Next, i bumped the multiplier up to 8 and it booted at 931!!!! (7.0x133). Say what!?!?!. Back into bios i went and changed it to 7.5 again. 1GHz. Tried 7.0x133 and it did 931. Tried 8x133 again and its still doing 931. This is all thru jumperfree, with bios 1004. Then i tried jumpered mode. Everything workign great at 7.5x133. Tried 8x133 and no post. Brought it back down to 7.5 and still no post. Long story short, i fried the processor. I put my Tbird 750 into the A7V133 and tried the multiplier on it. Same wack stuff, whatever i put into bios is NOT what it uses. Now on both of these processors i unlocked them (Connect 4 L1 bridges) using a mechanical pencil. I'm just wondering if anyone else is having wierd mulitplier problems with their A7V133.

sounds like your patch job on the L1 is no good. Your multipler still seems to be locked (partially). Try redoing the pencil job.
