How do I go past 1.7v on a Abit BX6 for my C566@850?

[Dogcatcher]

I'm trying to get 1.8 or more for stability. I tried to set it up in the bios and I doesn't give me more then a 1.7 setting. I tried to set the jumpers on my Slocket at 1.8 but it doesn't affect it in the bios. If I set it manually on the slocke, how can I tell if it's taking effect.
System is using:
Abit BX6R2
C2566/850
MSI Master Slocket ver 2.3
Thanks.

not too sure about the bx6 but on my bh6 you sinply re-flash the bios which will allow more voltage settings in the bios.

maybe someone else can confirm if this is the case for the bx6

set the voltage to max and save in bios then reflash. May take several tries to get the bios to read the voltage higher.

I kept the bios at 1.7 and the Slocket at 1.8. I flashed the bios and now have up to 1.9. It is now stable running UT at 1.75. I guess that .05 makes the differance. I tried 952 and it wouldn't boot to Win even at 1.9.
