4.) The plugging method into the CPU socket
You select "Socket view" in the interactive Pin-Mod guide, then choose the CPU and the desired multiplier or Vcore
(and maybe also the FSB to calculate the approximate frequency you'll get).
Now you can already see the socket with the respective connections for this multi.
To connect these, you take some little pieces of wire e.g. from a HDD or floppy-cable and shorten them
to 8 - 10mm pieces.
Then you put them into the shown positions and put the CPU into the Socket.
Et viola, now the CPU works with the desired multiplier.

Question:
Do I just put the small wire between the holes so that it connects? Do I fold the wire into the holes? Does anyone have pictures of this, or have you done it before? No soldiering required, so I can take the small peices of wire out if I dont like it?
 
You just make the little wires into a "U" shape and poke them into the socket holes...thats it!

Have fun...don't blow nothing up.

I noticed that there is an "Unlock - Multi via Bios up to 12.5 x" option under multiplier in the diagram. That only requires one wire! That looks like it is the simplest. So this one wire will unlock my cpu?
