shuttle ak31 rev3.1 cpu voltage issue

[IronCityPA]

Hi all. I have a shuttle ak31 rev3.1, 950mhz t-bird, 256mb OCZ PC-2400 ddr-sdram, and a 350W psu. When upping the voltage with my processor it doesn't display the correct voltage. For instance... at default (1.75volts)... it will be at around 1.7Volts. When I up her to +0.100 volts it will go between 1.790 volts and 1.808volts. When I try to put it to +0.125 volts it will go to 1.690volts... what gives? Any idea how to get around this voltage crap?

Thanks!

What BIOS are you using? I remember seeing this reported at least once before. I do not remember if there was a "fix" though. I tried going back to the OC Workbench Shuttle Forum but that was no functioning at early hours of this day. There is a new (03/02/2002) BIOS release you might want to try.

Actually, I'm using the newest bios from 3/02. So this is a common problem then? The reason I'm mad is b/c I just KNOW that my 950 will do 1.1ghz (sounds stupid I know but that's 150mhz...) but I can't get her over 8x135 right now with this voltage issue. 8x133 is working fine though with the voltage as high as I can get it.

OK, I got some info that I was looking for earlier. BTW, I'm not sure how common this is, but it has been reported more than once. Check out this thread on the OC Workbench Shuttle Forum. Especially the last post and it's link.
