I unlocked my axp1800+ the problem is that only some multipliers work... and the others make my PC not boot.
Ive tried the following:

12 * 133 - works fine
11.5 * 133(default) - works fine
11 * 133 - works fine
10.5 * 133 - doesnt boot(screen doesnt even turn on)
10 * 133 - doesnt boot(screen doesnt even turn on)

9.5 * 166 - doesnt boot(screen doesnt even turn on)
10 * 166 - doesnt boot(screen doesnt even turn on)
10.5 * 166 - doesnt boot(screen doesnt even turn on)
11 * 166 - screen turns on but doesnt go into windows(prolly cos it was run at default vcore)

When the PC does boot the actual clock speed is changed, so it using the new multipliers!

I didnt want to try higher multipliers at 166fsb incase I do some damage

my point is that that the multipliers below 11 dont seem to work. I want to run 166fsb but cant use 11 because:

1. i dont know if the cpu will even run that high
2. i dont have extreme cooling to push the vcore up a lot

If anyone could suggest a way for me to fix the multiplier problem it will be of great help.

Thanx :)

If 7X up to 8.5x work OK then your fourth L1 bridge has to be repainted.

If 7X thru 8.5x don't work then your third L1 bridge needs to be repainted.

<b>[EDIT]</b>

Sorry, I had the bridges to fix backwords. It's correct now.
