    xp2200 unlocking problems

    i have just tried unlocking my athlon xp 2200 and have had no success i have connected the 5th l3 bridge on the processor with conductive paint yet still it is locked and will not boot with custom multiplier setttings on an asus a7v333 motherboard, can anybody offer a reason why and a solution?

    Did you insulate the trenches before connecting the bridges? If not, you may have permanently locked the processor.

      no i merely connected the 5th l3 bridge with a horseshoe around the trench there is no paint in the trench as shown here may i need to connect 2 other bridges?

            its a miracle my processor is now unlocked and running with selection up to 12x multiplier although i cannot get any higher than this i dont want to as all i wanted todo is cranck the fsb up anyway well thats a turn up for the books as the l3 #5 trench is full of conductive gunk and the bridges are not even connected!
