Could you apply more than 1,55V to an k8 cpu? Seems to be another lock here.
Can be there is another one at 0,850V. At 1,8MHz my BE24000 required only 0,875V to be stable everything below resulted in an CPU-Overvoltag BIOS message.

EDIT: Tried 1,265V via bios for the nb but AMD power monitor shows 1,165V. Seems I can run triple core with 222 ref HT (2442MHz) stable and ~230 ref HT (2530MHz) as single core with 1,25V cpu/nb.
Mine works if set to .85 from windows (I run 2.2 @.85 as my lowest setting in crystalcpuid), but it wont post with it set in the bios. I havent tried higher than 1.55 since my chip didnt clock well with the 601 bios.
