Find where you unzipped it, then run it direct from there. I think that's how I did it because it didn't show up in the Themes display properties.

Update.

Pushing harder for that first A64 place. :)

Memory is on RMA at the moment, so is my DDR booster, so I can't even use my benching pair of OCZs :(. Hopefully going to get things going futher when they're both back.

some hardcore celery over cooking going on in my household today. :rolleyes:

managed to get my celeron 1.7 (100x17) upto 133 on the fsb for a clockspeed of 2265mhz. :D

i don't think there is any need for validation with a cpu-z screenshot. :o

This is on an AN7 with special bios; fsb only go to 225 at a push with pc 3700 :confused: Its a desktop Barton xp2500+ on a pathetic core stepping. Could push the vcore higher but on air and without a spare cpu didnt want to push it. :)

i feel like such a fraud posting in this thread when overclocking is as easy is this.... :p

pentium m 740
asus p4c800e deluxe / ct479 adapter
2x512mb geil value (2.5-3-3-6)

stock 133x13=1729
overclocked 210x13=2730

which is a 1001mhz or ~57%. so i think that qualifies. :D

looks a nice clock to me :) have you not pushed any higher you still have lot of Vcore left :cool: or are you worried about high temps (on stock cooling ?)

what's the max vcore you should put through these things on the stock cooler then? i'm not *too* fussed about temps so long as it's stable... :p

i'm not sure what to make of the current temperature readings though. here's how the board has been reading....

same bios used throughout, the 1023.001 - idle temps

celeron 1.7@stock
cpu 22/mobo 26 <<preposterous. made a post here and it seems the board under reads by anything upto 10c. fair enough....

pm 740@210x13
cpu 32/mobo 27

is this a more accurate reading or does the dothan really idle at 10c hotter than the celeron? if so then i can take it as 42ish?

under load (s&m 1.73) i'm getting temps of 47. if i add another 10c to this, i don't want to go too much higher, do i? :)

i personally think that dothan temps read higher, and i think macci on XS said they can be anywhere around what the board reads (up and down) but usually report higher than what P4s report.

yeah i went from a

p4 [email protected] + SP94 ------------- case-28----idle-25----load-40c
Dothan + ct479 stock cooler----- case-29----idle-50----load-60c
dothan @2.8 1.55v XP120------- case-30----idle 37c---- load-45

i think these processors are made to be screwed in a hot sweaty laptop, but i do know the stock fan cant really handle the dothan when you start cranking the Vcore up , how about getting another cooler on it :)

just tried 220x13, 1.55v and it wouldn't post. 215x13 got me into windows but firefox was crashing.... :p i guess i should drop the multiplier to find the max fsb my ram will goto, bearing in mind it's only geil value. :eek: :D

apologies to weescott for the thread hijack. anymore questions i have, i'll start a new thread. :)
