K7N2 Delta2 Multiplier 10

Question

I can't set multiplier to 10, did anybody tried that? When I set it to 10 the damn thing won't boot and only clear cmos helps(no worky with "Insert"). Since I have a Barton mobile I would like to try 230x10 instead of 200x11,5...
Oh, and the bios is B3 ofcourse, because all other (I tried b4,b4modded,b5,b5modded,b6,b61) are bad for OC

Answer 1

Most nforce2 boards bios i have been working with doesn't like large jumps in fsb between saves (corrupts the cmos) .
Have you tried first saving 10 x 200 ?
Then take the fsb up in small steps (2-3mhz increase between saves )
Edit !
What is the default multiplier on the mobile barton you have ?
Not all motherboards allow you to choose both multipliers that are larger and smaller than 12.5x.
You usually can only choose only multipliers that are greater or less than 12.5x
(depending on if your stock multi is greater than 12.5x or not).
Thats because most motherboards only have a 4bit FID.
Only Abit NF7-S v2 is one of the boards that actually has a 5bit FID, so you aren't limited to only the higher or lower multipliers.
A workaround for this can be to force the motherboard/bios to read another default multiplier .
This than easily be fixed with some wires in the cpu socket .
That way you can so to say hardcode another default multiplier .
There is also a description of the 4bit and 5bitmaxFID here on Abit that
explains the downsides and restrictions with a 4bit FID mobo.
