    Hello.

    I'm make pin mode, hardware:
    Acer Aspire 7738G
    Intel Core 2 Duo P8700
    1066 Bus, (266)
    ICS 9LPRS365BKL
    RAM: 4GB 1333 + 2GB 1066

    Acer Support: Acer Aspire 7738G Notebook Specifications

    I make pin mode
    I cut oryginal path to pin11.

    From 11 pin i put resistor 5k, 10k, 20k, 30, 50, 70, 90k to ground but still I have logic 1.
    When is resistor 5k voltage is 0.24 in 11pin but fetfsb have still logic 1.
    Screenshot shows it's status on register 9 bit 6, shown as 65h=1100101(binary) bit 6=1, meaning no overclocking

    What wrong make i?

    Congrats, that's quite of an overclock :) Is it stable?

    Sorry, crappy connection here :( It barely loads the forum, let alone clips. Anyway, congrats again.

    Great that you've done the movies, but I think it would help if you outlined in a step-by-step fashion exactly what was necessary to get TME unlocked. From the movies it sounds like you simply attached a 2k-10k resistor to the PLL pin 11 (TME) and GND.

    If you slow down your RAM timings with SPDTool/Thaiphoon Burner and increase your voltage in Throttlestop (and if necessary, a +0.1V or +0.2V CPU pinmod per http://forum.notebookreview.com/har...90696-bsel-mod-socket-p-explained-photos.html ), then I believe you could overclock further.
