    Palomino failed unlock - help

    Well I got this 1600+ when I was on old PC2100 ram, and I got it to work on a 12.5 mult. Well I finally have good ram, but the original unlock failed to go below mult of 11 (default is 10.5). Ive tried reconnecting the bridges many times, but just cant get below 11. Are there any tricks I can do to force it to a 10 mult (open/close any other bridges?). Thanks!

    if you cant Unlock it by connecting the L1's, no offence, but i really would not attempt to cut bridges.... just keep on trying. you will get it eventually.

    I fill the pits w/ a crayon and use conductive pen to connect. give that a try.

    Yeah, but they aren't done right if you aren't getting all the multiplers. You need to undo everything and redo it again. I used white-out to fill the gaps and the defogger repair kit on the bridges. It took me forever to get it right, but I finally did once I went free hand rather than trying to tape everything off. And make sure that your "artwork" on the first bridge isn't touching the little triangle (which is apparently grounded and will screw things up too).

    Good Luck!
