Duron 700mhz
Infinion Ram.
Asus A7V with dips..
Alpha 6035.

Now, I have everything set to jumpermode, and I have My voltage set to 1.65, and I have my FSB switches on, (which is off by defualt right?) and it won't post..
I just tried to shoot for 7.5x and it won't post.
I mean.. this sucks!
 
You have to make sure that the L1 golden bridges are all connected. If they aren't, get a 5mm mechanical pencil and connect them.
 
althought i dont really know jack about amd chips i have heard that the pencil marks disappear after a while so you might want to recheck
 
Redo your bridges, some people have had to do it 3 times or more before they get it right. I've never heard of a Duron, especially a 700, that won't do 750+ if the MB is configured correctly and the bridges are connected.
 
Like JimMc says, try the pencil trick again. I had to do it 6 or 7 times. (Guess I'm just a slow learner!) But the end result was worth it: Duron 600 at 900MHz!
 
OK FOLKS!
It's been re penciled, and played with the jumpers a bit more..
now @ 960mhz @ 1.8volts!
It also survived a boot to windows @ 80celcius when I forgot to plug the fan back in.
Somebody smack me.
