BIO'S CHANGE FOR PAVILION?

I've got a 500Mhz Pavilion, 6573Z, I want to up the CPU chip Mhz. Is there a way to change the BIO's? It has a ASUS MEW-VW mother board. Thanks! Steve

Are you certain it's not an MEW-VM?

Anyway, I can help, but not with BIOS. There's a company that makes a cheap Tualatin converter that ALSO works with Coppermines and has, get this, bus speed and core voltage jumpers. If it's a Celeron 500, you can't raise the bus speed from 66 to 100MHz because the core doesn't go that far, but if it's a PIII 500, you can raise it to 733MHz by increasing the bus speed from 100 to 133MHz, using the adapter.

Compgeeks sells the adapter as a FC-PGA to FC-PGA2 adapter, but like I said, it's also capable of just adding bus speed/core voltage detection adjustments to a Coppermine. It's $8 last I looked, and if you need additional jumper settings, feel free to ask.
