I know this has been asked before and also been answered but im slow and am finally getting arround to unlocking mu XP 1700 and i need a link or 2 to tell me how to do it. thanks in advance im sure ill get some great ones
in his article, he reffers to "silicone thermal paste." anyone know if the local Fry's or Circuit City sells these stuff or some other common store (specifically in the so.calif area). how would i be sure that it is the right one? Would it say non-conductive?
I just used White Out and a defogger repair kit to unlock mine. Do not get the conductive material anywhere but on the L1 connections. I got some on the arrow that points to them and my bios automatically reported a 1700+ (I have a 1600) and I could not change the multiplier any higher until I cleaned it off.
Now that I did I can change it freely.
W/ the avg XP doing around 155-160 FSB (at least 150 FSB), I dun think the hassle of unlocking the multiplier is worth it. Some ppl just mess up their expensive XP doing the unlocking job.
