(Abit BH6) Where are my multiplier options??

[danzig]

I recently purchases another BH6 for myself and was getting ready to set up another Celermine 566 BUT I was greeted with only 6 or 7 multiplier options and voltage options only going up to 1.7 volts . It recognizes my processor as Intel Pentium III MMX (550E,700E depending on what I set it to) . Any help would be greatly appreciated

Your CPU is multiplier locked, even if your motherboard has options to change it-- it will not make any difference. The CPU tells the MOBO whats its multiplier is. To overclock you will have to raise the FSB.

I'm not sure why its calling you CPU a PIII. You could possibly need to flash a new BIOS to use the new Celermines properly.

Thanks Birddog - I know the multiplier is locked . The manual states multipliers of 66,75,78,81,83,90,95,100 and many more above 100 . I pulled the 566 Celermine out of my other machine - it is not stable enough at 100 mhz bus but 95 runs great . In this machine I only have option of 66,75,83,100 and up . This m/b is several months newer than my old one . Maybe it is bios flash time ! Thanks

danzig what your manual states is not what we call multipliers but fsb speeds (front side bus)
