    Is there a pin mod to let you go below 0.875?

    No multi pin mod.

    There is an FSB pin mod. AKA BSEL mod.
    But if you have an intel chipset your multi will be locked to the lowest value.

    There is another pin mod, not a CPU pin mod, a PLL pin mod that will work for you.

    You can go from a 266mhz FSB to a 333mhz FSB.
    Or you can unlock the PLL so that you can use setfsb.
    I can help you with the volt mod and PLL pin mod if you want.

    Here is a good volt mod guide:

    Here is my PLL pin mod guide (Nando4 provided all of the info):
