I'm not sure if I'm going to do it anyway, but I know there's a pin on
the 2000+ that you can cut to unlock the CPU's multiplier, which one is
it? Thanks.


There is no such pin. Which core 2000+ do you have, Palomino, Tbred A, or
Tbred B? What MB do you have? What are you trying to do?

It's a Thoroughbred b
I was only thinking after I sent to the group, I did forget MB Gigabyte
GA-7N400 (none of the extra's that some of these boards have.) But I don't
really need 4 IDE's 2 IEEE 1394 & Raid Sata just to Overclock.

What can you tell me? I did re-set the board, so the cpu has to be locked if
it stays @ 12.5x & no higher.

Assuming you are wanting to overclock this cpu, just set the FSB to 166Mhz
instead of 133. I'd also raise vcore to at least 1.65v to start with. As
long as you PC2700 (or faster) ram, you can leave it 1:1. If everything
goes weel there, you can slowly raise the FSB to get more speed, which
will probably also require more vcore and maybe a ram adjustment. I've had
my Tbred b up to 13x185 with 1.80v vcore. Didn't try any higher.
