Ok Guys,
yes I am a nooby so bear with me.
Is there a step by step guide on how to unlock a 2800 Barton - what to look
for and how to bridge what links etc? The mobo is a MSI km4m. All the
multipliers seem to be there in the bios, but are greyed out, supposedly due
to the chip being locked. If the chip can be unlocked and o/clocked, what
sort of increase in performance should I be looking at?
Thanks for any pointers, Mike |

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news Mike but, at the moment, there is no
known way to unlock that CPU.

Are all 2800s locked? I thought it was only after week 0339 or |
thereabouts. |

Don't hold your breath. Lots of clever people have tried very hard and
failed already. I doub't if it will ever be possible.
