I have today unsuccessfully tried to unlock my Athlon XP2000+, by using a supposedly conductive epoxy, that turned out to be no more conductive than an ordinary plastic epoxy (i.e. infinite resistance). I guess the silver in the tubes wasn't mixed very well...
Scratching to remove the epoxy, I unfortunately also removed some laquer (I can see a metal surface under a couple of scratches in the surface), so that when using a conducting silver paint, all the L1 terminals are now suddenly connected to the ground. I don't think it is possible to isolate them again. :-(
My question is (since Tom's guide is very vague on this); can I still use the processor as a multiplier-locked CPU, or will I have to order a new one?
