I unlocked my duron 800 chip and stuck a volcano 7 on top. i was told that unlocking it would let me change the multiplier in bios, but there's no option... i can only change the fsb- which gives crashes galore. Is there a program which i can change the multiplier in realtime somewhere, or do i need to flash my bios? i cant find my motherboard manufacturer anywhere, the Bios ID is IA6LMC5CC. much appreciated

How is it that you were able to figure out how to unlock your Duron but you can’t figure out what MOBO you have?

Belarc Advisor might tell you your MOBO.
