Trying to OC a 900 TBird on ABIT KT7-RAID...Clock multipier settings.

Trying to OC a 900 TBird last night. Used a Circuitworks conductive pen to carefully close the L1 bridges. When changing the BIOS to 'user select' clock multiplier, we would post showing unexpected CPU speeds. We kept the FSB at 100 to avoid confounding factors. A clock multiplier of 9.5 caused the BIOS to recognize a CPU peed of 950mHZ, but a clock multiplier of 10 was listed as 900mHZ. Similarly, a multiplier of 10.5 posted 950mHZ, a multiplier of 11 listed 1000mHZ, as well. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Better yet, does anyone have any idea as to why this is happening? Was only able to boot at 950mHz, BTW in spite of voltage adjustments.
 
first your problem cause by bad connection between L1. I have same problem at you do before but when redo the L1 it give me no problem now. well after redo the L1 try to set this 8x133fsb 4way interleave , turbo.vcord 3.5 and volted to max. if it run stable then try to increase muitiply to 8.5 then continue to 9.5 that is the best way to overclock for me cos if you run high fsb than you will going to get trouble with bus speed I thought. remmember no more set your fsb over 140.
 
I believe that the L1 bridges are probably not completely closed and therefore the chip is not completely clock- unlocked. When I get my hands on the computer again (it belongs to a friend), I will redo the L1 bridges. Thanks for your help.
