I have a 1.1 celeron running on a cognac mother board. I understand this is a POS but i my core voltage with not go above 1.520. The processor is a 1.75v. With the original 533 i connected vid3 to the vss and bump the core voltage from 1.488 to 1.520 but the voltage should have gone to 1.95. Is the a problem with the stock PSU? Have the lasted bios. And it has the pll isc-9250b set for 100mhz fsb.

Are you having problems with stability or just looking at the bios/monitor and thinking Hmm....
If your not having problems then I honestly wouldn't worry.

as far as the system goes this is a server set up in my dorm. i have a self built asus-k8n sli deluxe thanx for the offer on the p4 though. But i was attempting to overclock the 1.1 and i cant get the voltage to past 1.5. Just wondering I really dont care about this terd just wanted to overclock on a crap system b4 messing with my clawhammer.

find a schematic of the mobo

replace the resistor that regulated the cpu voltage - that should blow it up! or just by pass the regulation circuits your get the full 3.3v

you can swap them and change your voltage that way for cool dorm project - warning make sure you have a fire extinguisher handy!

Water conducts electricity so I would try spraying water on the CPU. This should give the Celeron the boost in Voltage it needs.

disclaimer: Use of this advice may cause death and destruction. Whenever spraying water on electrical devices be sure to wear the proper safety equipment and avoid grounds.

I see everyone is being more than helpful, as usual. :roll:

First of all, is this a Coppermine Celeron, or a Tualatin that we're dealing with? What is the chipset found on this Cognac board?

The coppermines are only so-so overclockers, especially at the "high" frequencies like 1.1ghz. I have a 1.3a Celeron overclocked to 1.5ghz on 1.65v, running Windows Xp like a champ, never a hiccup.

While I'm sure you aren't interested investing more money into dead technology, the tualatins are much better at this sort of thing than the coppermines.

As he said, don't bother if it's a Coppermine. You're already maxed out when it comes to possible clock speed.

I run my 1.3 @ 1648/1.65v and it's suprisingly quick. The highest i could run it fairly stable was 1675(hit 1700 once for Suicide-Shot)damn AGP/PCI. Did the pin-mod for 133FSB, but even with the pin-mod for >volts, it wouldn't boot. :x Still going strong after a few years, and overclocked the whole time. :)

I will say I have always been impressed with how the late PIII based Celerons performed. Not really a gamers delight, but they did everything else within earshot of their big brothers, and even outperformed the AMD competition from time to time. I think you summed it up nicely with "surprisingly quick", and I would certainly back that up! If only my chip could keep pace with yours... 8)

I have a 1.2 Celly, 1.3 Celly, and a 1.2 PIII. If i O/C the 1.2 to 1320(110FSB), the 1.3@ stock still benches a bit better(go figure), with the same RAM timings..2-2-2, plus the 110FSB vs. 100.. Very weird. :? The PIII is unbelievably cool running.

As long as they were the 800MHz and higher Celerons, they were fairly decent. My first self-purchased computer had an 800mHz celeron. I didn't know more than the basics about computers at the time; I lucked out and just happened to get a decent Celeron system. I got plenty of use out of that computer.
