Overclocking my PIII i440BX-W977EF above 4.5/124 FSB

[Captain_Splat]

I know my cooling can handle it, but my multiplier is locked and she won't boot above 124Mhz FSB. I heard from some guy who heard from another guy that there is a certain modification i can make to my mobo to enable 133fsb and possibly multiplier settings. Please help, all you old-time veterans that hang out here I know some of you possess this valuable ancient knowledge. Thanks. Oh yeah right now it's a PIII 450 OC'ed to 558. She's warm, but not enough to burn my fingers...yet.

I think you have to increase your core voltage if thats possible, but watch what the AGP and PCI bus dividers are set at, cause they won't go too high.

Bump. I knew i shouldn't have posted at 3am, it was a bitch to find this. Anyone know how to up the voltage safely? Maybe you know of a website that has archives from 2 years ago??

Ok I read all that, didn't help...much. I already know the difference between a piece of crap and a piece of gold. Ok i learned a few things. Tell me more.

 

[camieabz]

LOL. Tell you more. Well crap is crap to some and not to others.

Gold is metal to men and mini orgasms to women.

Back later with more.

My wifes comp has a p3 450@600 SL35D . if your motherboard does not support voltage changes then do this.
Cover connectors A-119,B-119and A-121 on the processor cartridge with GOOD clear tape, sticky teflon tape, etc...
This will give you 2.2 volts.if possible cool the cache chips with a copper plate between them and the heatsink. They sit lover on the pcb so the heatsink does not touch them without a spacer.

I aint signing nothing!!!
