Yonah has been pinmodded! - Page 7

post #121 of 157
Thread Starter 
If the pinmod won't reverse for you, it just means that the pin isn't making contact to the contact in the socket. You may need to take a smallish pin and try to bend the contact in the socket back in place... good luck with that since that hole is so tiny I had that problem every time I reverted to stock also... but it cleared itself up each time since the contact inside the socket is spring loaded. If you cannot get the socket to make contact again, you may be stuck with a 1GHz processor for a while...

So, what is the state of this pinmod? Has anyone with a T2050 been able to pinmod it to 667 FSB without it getting locked at 6x multiplier? I have a T2050 here just waiting for such a "upgrade"...

yes i clipped the pin, when i revert to orijinal, i pushed a piece of tiny wire in the socket, but the pins and socket are so tiny i think my mainboard doesn't support 667 mhz. Or 945GM is not pin moddable. You will try to write to clockgen guys the clock chip on my motherboard. i writed it here.

Ok, the whole locked multiplier issue MUST be related to the chipset. My sucessfull pin mod was on a Toshiba S2386 ATI Radeon Xpress 200 based laptop. (check a screenshot here)

I took the same CPU and did the same mod to an Inspiron 6400 (945 chipset) and it was locked at the 6x multiplier.

That being said, the Radeon Xpress 200 chipset seems to cripple the Core based CPU's - The 2080 @ 1.73GHz ran a 1min 35sec 2M Super Pi run on the 945, while the same CPU overclocked to 2.16GHz ran it in 1min 45sec on the Radeon Xpress 200 - (and it ran a pathetic 2min 5 sec run at the stock 1.73GHz)

Interesting...Will I be able to pinmod my Core Duo 1,83 Ghz processor?
It's the Intel Core Duo T2500...

Keep up the great work guys. I've been anxiously following this thread for a couple months now.

I've got an Intel Calistoga i945 GM motherboard (intel 950 GFX) with a T2250 CPU.

Would lke to try to go for 166 fsb, but still nervous about the 6X multi issue.
Hopefully someone will find a solution.

Thanks to everyone who is working on this.

Sorry I don't have anything important to add. My post is just so I can subscribe to the thread. Thanks for all the hard work so far
post #128 of 157
I also am subscribed to this thread

I have not found a PLL clock gen program for the Dell E1705 "ICS954305"

Any word on replacing the crystals? or if SetFSB or ClockGen are interested in adding the "ICS954305"?

Hi guys, I have been linked to this thread as I took a dive and tried to pinmod my T5250 (1.5GHz Core 2 Duo Merom Processor) to 800FSB on my Dell Inspiron 1520.

It did it successfully but it is stuck at the 6x multiplier as described in this thread.



As you can see it reads that it worked (BIOS reads 1.8GHz too) but its stuck at 6x multiplier.



Any further information on how to solve this?

Oh and I also tried all types of ways to increase the Multiplier via software to no avail.

I was Having the same problem, mostly during game play, it would drop to 998MHz then goto 1300MHz the 1666MHz then finally back to 2.17, I tried forcing fances to high I tired several softwares to lock the speedstepping feature, I finally figured out it was due to power issues, i was using a non-power required 4x USB Hub to add extra stuff, I already have all 6 usb ports used up, and all i did was add a web cam and a light, the second i removed them i havent had the problem since Im always running at top speed, and if i choose i can completly shut off I8kfangui 3.1, put i still leave it on, because I have my 7900GTX clocked at 630\745 but that worked for me, try not using so many add-on hardware, if you are. if not i have no other ideas
post #131 of 157
Well my power supply is the same one that is given to the other CPU's which go up to 2.2GHz. So I don't think the PSU is the problem and I have nothing plugged in. I'm not prepared to do any type of cutting of pins...There must be a way to figure this out.
post #132 of 157
what happens if you turn the speedstep off in the bios? Will it lock it at full speed?
post #133 of 157

Nope, it does the exact opposite. It will lock in at the lowest multiplier and will not change for any
thing.
post #134 of 157
The BIOS speedstep option locks the processor into the lowest power state.
post #135 of 157
Bumping the thread.

Anybody got any ideas?
post #136 of 157
hmm, I may be getting a t2310 on black friday. Figure it's a gimped merom at 133. If only there's a way to unlock it from 6x.. guess intel didn't like what happened last time

I apologize for not following through all the pages. But anyone try the advanced settings in rmclock? maybe disabling c1e?

as I understand, there's no speedstep in effect in dos mode. anyone try a dos program that'll bench the cpu? I imagine it'd be single core, but if it could show stock vs pinmod, maybe that'd still lead us somewhere as to if it's hard or harder.

The BIOS reads that it is 1.8GHz in my case for my T5250...so its not that it didn't work. And yes we tried disabling speedstep and everything basic like that. Its such a shame...that boost would have been so awesome! There's gotta be a way...

I search and read many many site around the web and found one person successfull with T2050 but base on ATI RS4xx chipset, not Intel chipset. MaxFSB do the samething with T2080 on ATI chipset. All people run on Intel chipset do the pin mod met the problem : Lock multiplier @ x6. So I think who have lappy with Intel chipset, don't do the Pin mod ( All Core Duo and Core 2 Duo )

yeah it's been noted that intel chipsets follow through with a check for fsb, but other chipsets don't seem to follow. that said, other chipsets seem to underperform by a great deal

For all you guys stuck at 6X after trying the pin mod to 667 with the wire jumper in the socket: try removing the jumper and put the socket pins back to normal. This should get you back to normal multiplier and stock 533 FSB, even if you removed the BSEL[1] pin, it should still default back to stock multi and 533. At least you will be back to your normal speed. I was successful with the pin mod but that was on an ATI chipset. Apparently it does not work on any intel chipsets unless someone figues out how to hack BIOS power management. If you are stuck at 6X, at least your battery will last much longer! MaxFSB
