    take the chip out. get a pencil. join each of the (7?) l1 bridges. do each pair of bridges not along them for example:

    before

    after
    |||||||

    that should do it. leave the others alone. i forget what the rest are for except l3 and l4 are for setting the defulat multiplyer, wont be usefull to you really, but when unlocking paliminos it can be needed...

    Do have a fiddle with the RAM settings in case anything got screwed up. There's no point at all running the RAM faster than the FSB in an Athlon system, it's actually slower. Set the RAM speed to the same as your FSB then set the timings as tight as you can; If you've got PC3200 then you should be able to run 2-2-2-6 at 133MHz.

    Hmm, I'll give it a go... but I'm sure my RAM was running at 200MHz whilst my CPU was running at 133MHz. Not bothered about timings, I'll leave them be. BIOS has it set to aggressive anyway.
