reconnecting Intel's broken internal connections

[74merc]

such as the multiplier, fsb and voltage settings.
I have the pinouts, I know how I need to set the, but an internally cut connections makes it difficult.
If I take a piece of wire and connect pin 1(which is closed) to pin 3(which is open) what are the odds this would work?

Pin 1 to pin 3? Is this for the slot1? OK, no Slot ! experience here, but....

With the original Pentium line it was impossible to reconnect the broken connections. I've tried everything from graphite to solder.

With the Coppermine chips the motherboard did the work, so it was possible to connect internally disconnected detection pins externally, therefor raising the detected voltage or detected bus speed.

And Tom said it was possible to disconnect certain detection pins using tape, to raise the detected bus speed, on the Slot 1 processors.

You never know unless you try!

pin 1 to pin 3 was just an example.
its vcc(I think thats the right name, don't have the paper in front of me) pin 2 to pin 3 actually.
1.6v is 001000
1.7v is 000100 I think. I'm not going to break a pin, but I will try to insulate it from the motherboard, the problem is reattaching the open pin. 001xxx makes lower voltage, no matter which pin I use, I must close that connection to make it 1.65 or 1.7v. With normal cooling, how tolerant are Coppermines of 2v? If I close the pin to make it 000000 then it makes 2v, that would just be a way to see if my idea works... my goal is 1.7v, as it is an official voltage for mobile coppermines.

I've had them well above 2 volts. Now don't you wish you were using an FC-PGA and Slotket III?

you could use the Powerleap adapter, it had onboard voltage setting jumpers.

you dont want to damage the CPU, you could try working on the adapter.

It'd be cool if it worked though
