Just got an Asus A7N8X Mobo up and running, but im unable to change the multiplier in BIOS. After reading several reviews which all where able to change the CPU multiplier I'm wondering if there is a trick to it.
The CPU im using is an XP 2200+, with the last trace on the L3 bridge closed. It has been working fine in other systems which i was able to use the lower multilpier settings.
I have tried all the different BIOS versions 1001.C, 1001.D, 1001.E, and the current 1001.G but all with the same result. The older ver will not post when I select the multiplier manually, and the current ver will post but stops at an error message "CPU clock frequency too high" or something simular.
I need your help, if you have any ideas or suggestions of some web sites that might offer a solution I would greatly appreciate it.

Well first off 1001D is for the non deluxe board!!!!
I wouldn't even try to load that bios on a deluxe board.
But to correct your problem with the overclock. Turn hold on all errors off!!!!! See if that works.
