I can only get my 900 up to 7.5 @ 133/33.

As we speak (well, type), I'm testing a Duron 800, locked, at 1008 MHz, 1.85V. So far, so good.

It wasn't stable at 133 MHz, however.

I don't know, but can you run a lower multiplier with the CPU unlocked? I wouldn't have needed to unlock if that was the case. Is this possible for you Paul?

Goody, goody, new sig.....

Nope. It's locked at 800.

I was going to unlock it, but those bridges are really small. (And my hands are really shakey. Could be the five gallons of coffee I drink every day. )

It looks like 1066 isn't perfect. Prime 95 will get an incorrect answer occasionally.

1050 seems okay, but too soon to really tell.

I'm thinking about raising the I/O voltage up a little from 3.4V. I haven't found much information about that though...

Wait till you hit bi-focal age.....I was elated when my 'bird came unlocked.

I upped the voltage and am at 133/33 @ 8 for 1064.

paul if your having probs with shaking why not just cover them best as you can and then take an eraser and wipe in between the bridges to take off the excess pencil
i had too much lead on mine and the mobo wouldnt even boot so i used an eraser and cleaned up the excess when i booted it up it worked fine.. im not saying press hard with the eraser but just glide it along the surface you should be ok plus im doing some trial runs with mine to see if i can get to 1gig
im at 950 right now with voltage at 1.725 and temp at 38celsius

Those are really nice overclocks, guys.

An eraser. LOL. That was a very clever solution.
