    Thanks guys but it looks like im screwed. This is the last time I buy a MSI board ever. Especially a VIA one. There are no jumpers to lock the Agp/PCI bus at all. The board will simply not accept unlocked CPU's running changed multipliers. Also I just noticed the cooling fan over the...

    I think I've reached the limits of my MX440.

    Remove all your PCI cards so theres nothing under your MX, and try to find a way to mount a Thermaltake Volcano +7. That bad boy will get the job done. 2 Pounds of pure copper and a fan that would make jet engines blush can go a long way lol.

    LOL I admire your courage and stubborness :) The only way your going to have the * MOST * overclocked MX is using some exotic cooling system like vapochill and dropping the VPU temp to like -40 degrees lol. Even then, the video ram on that card would be the thing holding you back probably...

    wow thanks. Good stuff. I will have to look into this more. Forgive my ignorance, but what are pci/agp " locks " ?? Im assuming like Eno said, these " locks " are failing and I need to set them manually ? Tried leaving the FSB settings alone and just changing the multiplier, but no dice...

    Does the KT-4 Ultra Allow Multiplier Changes at All ??

    The MX series is made from the lowest quality components.... good choice for overcloaking right ?? ;) Heh sorry just ribbing on ya man. Good luck. But I think your doing good to get any extra out of that card at all.

    Does the KT-4 Ultra Allow Multiplier Changes at All ??

    Im running a AMD Athlon 2400 + ( non barton ). It has been unlocked and has passed all stability and unlocking tests. In two seperate motherboards, including a KT-4 Ultra FISR, it booted no problem with different multipliers. The CPU works great on my system and has for a while now...

    Ok thanks ! Know a good place where I can research the voltages required ?? Im kinda new at such things. When I tried this I had the ram timings set to " auto " in the Bios. But I will input your suggested settings and give it a try. Thank you.

    My mistake. Perhaps I worded my situation wrong. Im not actually trying to overclock. Im trying to run a higher FSB to take advantage of my rams true bandwith, and using a lower multiplyier to keep the CPU clock arround the stock 2,000 Mhz.

    Guru's of OC'ing. Hear me and help plz.

    Oh and thank you too Cell. But you see, the computer boots just fine with the stock multiplier and FSB settings. So its not that the mobo sees my CPU is unlocked and does not know how to go from there. Right ? My whole issue is that I KNOW, and have tested, that this CPU has been...

    Thanks Sweedish. Ok I have a Thermaltake Xsaser III psu rated at 500 watts. So I think im good on that. I have my CPU voltage set to auto, which is 1.65 volts. Any more info you need in order to help me ? I will gladly provide it. Thank you.

    Guru's of OC'ing. Hear me and help plz.

    What does that mean though ? It " does not know what to do " ?? Im telling it what to do. This mobo and the new bios supports 333 FSB cpu's too. :(

    Guru's of OC'ing. Hear me and help plz.

    Thanks. But I tried using even numbers like 10 or 12 and got the same result. Im starting to think this Bios simply will NOT accept these settings even with an unlocked CPU. Anyone know where I can get a Bios that can let me do this ?

    Hi this is my first post on this forum. I am told this is the best forum for pc tweekers so heres my problem. Im sure to you guys this is super simple, but I can't figure out why its not working. Im trying to run a 166 FSB ( 333 DDR ) on an unlocked non-barton AMD Athlon 2400 +. The CPU...
