Celeron 566 voltage

[wellonchompy]

Does anyone here have experience with socket 370 celerons, and changing the voltage?

My current setup is a celeron 566 (coppermine) running at 708 (8.5 * 83mhz) on a slocket adapter to an older slot 1 gigabyte motherboard with an intel 440 chipset, 192 mb (64 * 3) pc133 sdram. The motherboard has dip switches for fsb & multiplier, but there is no way, not even in the bios, to change the voltage.

My question is: does anyone know how I could, either with the slot 1 or the socket 370 and some solder/glue/wires, how I could change the voltage to make it stable enough to get to 850mhz (8.5 * 100 fsb)?

Hope I've got this right.....

View the CPU from the pin side. Make sure both beveled corners are to the left.

Far right row, 3rd pin down is VID3 (AJ37).
2nd row from right, 2nd pin down is VSS (AK36).

These must be joined. This will give you 1.9V

5th row from the right, 3rd pin down is BSEL0 (AJ33). This pin must be removed or insulated from the CPU socket. This will give 100MHz FSB.

BTW I've counted each row, staggered, not rows in line.

I believe this procedure can be hit and miss though, and isn't guarranteed.

Hah!!

I found the old thread on this one.

<A HREF="http://forumz.tomshardware.com/hardware/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=645938#645938" target="_new">Here</A> it is. Check out Crashman's link. It should have a diagram of the CPU pins, so my crappy description won't be needed.

You know I still haven't received any kind of reward for being the one to actually look up and read all that stuff!

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

Thanks heaps for the advice, I'm not very technical when it comes to the electronics side of stuff.

Ill try this all out when i get the confidence

Once again, thanks

I'm fine, thanks.

Aw well.

I'd best go and tell Scamy you're not up for it then.
