I know how to unlock the athlon xp, so please don't be posting various links (and, yes i have the THG video). My question is, if i do unlock it, how can I adjust the multiplier? I have a ViaKt266A Mobo (gigabyte something, with amiBIOS) but in the BIOS there is no option for multiplier. Once I unlock my cpu will a new option, or screen apear? If one doesn't, I can't adjust the multiplier, due to the fact that my mobo has no jumpers for this. Will I just waste my time doing this?
thanks,

If your mobo doesn't have either Dipswitch (or jumper) or in BIOS to adjust multiplier, you can't change Athlon XP's multiplier even though you unlock it.

:smile: Good or Bad have no meaning at all, depends on what your point of view is.
