The only problem is that if you dont have calcsys then this is not reversible with out resting ram.

So what, he has a 666 in his ID number, that isn't bad.
I was just currious, have you noticed that intel never made a 666MHZ chip, but instead made a 667?

What?!? Corporate Superstitions? ?? But I thought ALL companies are evil! (thats why I want to own one, but thats for some other day....) but anyway (to avoid a lock) about thoses buffers not comming back with out a reset.....

I don't think the corporations were superstitious. I think they realize that there are a lot of superstitious people who wouldn't buy a computer if it was rated at 666MHZ, so they jacked it up 1MHZ so that they could leagally call it 667MHZ.

that's not why they did it, the reason they did it is because their proccessor speeds increase by 1 third of a hundred, which is 33.(non termination decimal of 3) so when u round that off, u get 33, but when u double it, and then round it, u get 67

Then why did Intel sell a 166, 266, 366, 466, 566, 766?
Clock rates are a very settable thing. Example, my PC's processor is running at 800MHZ becaue of the jumbers and bios setting, not becuase it is ratted at 800.
I could safely set it to run at 600 MHZ, the lowest my motherboard goes, but that would be rediculus. I could even tell it to run at 833 that would probably work but might not be a very good idea.
I could even tell it to run at 866 or 900, or 1000MHZ (my PC's fastest setting) But going above 800 is dangerous and might fry the chip. Becides, I doubt that I would notice a performance increase by changing the setting to make it run at 866 which I could probably achieve.

yes, i'm very aware that u can change the baud rate and over/underclock processors, i have all kinds of speed programs on my palm, afterburner III quickbits, ect. at 37mhz and having just about all functions of lcd functions being optimized by alternate methods, it's about 5 times faster than it was when i got it, and from what read, on the pIII and up, they stopped just using the integer part and started rounding it off, i guess they were wrong, btw i still haven't figured out how to change the speed on my desktop would u mind telling me?

You mean that windows speed such as how fast a window opens and closes, or how long the delay is form the time you click the start button to the time the menu is displayed? If so, then you must use regedit to change a few keys...Riskey.
If you are talking about overclocking your PC, then I would advise against it unless you know exactly what you are doing.
Basically you may press delete, F1, Escape, or what ever you PC says when it starts up to enter the BIOS/CMOS setup. Depending on the Make, model, and year of your mother board, you may be able to change the processors speed there. If not, then you must remove the case and change a processor multiplier.
Example: Lets say that you have a bus speed of 200MHZ, and and you are running the processor at 4X, then your processor will be running at 800MHZ. But if you change the multiplier to 5X then your PC will be running at 1GHZ, you will see a black screen nothing, or the chip will fry (in which case bringing it back to 800MHZ won't bring your computer back to life unless you also replace the processor!)
I don't think that it would be a good idea to change the speed of your PC unless you know the limitations of your hardware. You must do research, and provide adequate cooling or you may be out a PC.
Disclaimer: If you do go ahead and experiment, then you do so without holing me or anyone else responsible for the results.

you do know that if u mis-spell something in a disclaimer someone can claim in court that they didn't know what you meant because they thought the word was something else, right?

Holding, the court would probably find the defendant not guilty due to the fact that it is obvious what it meant. Besides, I could tell you to jump off a bridge and if you do so I probably wouldn't get into trouble if tried in court.
In this system it is easier to defend you self than to be the plaintiff, even though the plantiff has nothing further to loose.

um...u didn't hear about that dude who put on the cruise control in an RV, then went in the back to make a sandwhich did u? well here's what happened, he sued the company he rented it from claiming that they didn't properly instruct him on how to operate the vehicle, and he won...get my point?

It would have been better if his RV would have went over a cliff, killing him and nobody else. It is people like him who polute the genepool!
Did you hear about the guy who bbqed indoors, lost consiousness from smoke inhalation; but didn't die becuase his wife came home from work and pulled him outside. They sued a charcol briket company and wone 4 million!

I actually made a virus, well sort of. The backbone of the thing is David's from cirrus, but what it does is delete every program on the calc, except the three it uses. FUN!!!
