I have a mobo Epox 8kta+ with a Duron 700mhz.
I checked that my Duron is not one of the locked ones (has all pins), but I just can't overclock it.
I thought all I needed was to set a new clock multiplier (using the switch 2), but it has no effect.
Then I tried putting a new Vccore (switch 1), like (from 1.65 original) to 1.7, 1.75 and 1.8. No effects, even with the sw1 set to auto clock or manually to X 8.0. But the Vcc incresead as expected (only the clock multiplier didn't change).
Should I have to do anything else apart from changing the switches?
Is there a "secret" jumper or setting that is locking it?
Do I need to change anything special in the BIOS? (I got the latest update from Epox).
Just to be sure, I did the trick shorting the L1 bridges with a pencil to unlock the processor IF that was the case, but nothing changed.
And I could change the BIOS settings "CPU HOST/PCI/Spread" from the "Default" up to "111/37/OFF", giving me FSB of 222mhz and internal clock of 777mhz (but all the multiplier changes didn't work either with the "Default" settings or these new ones).
Who succesfully overclocked with this mobo?
