Overclocking A7N8X-E...?

A friend of mine recently bought an A7N8X-E but we haven't figured out how to overclock the CPU. His CPU is a multiplier locked XP 1700+ so we have to increase the FSB to OC it. The problem is that the only availableFSB options are 100, 133, 166 & 200MHz and at 166MHz it won't post, at least with the current cooler. I've flashed the mobo with the latest Über BIOS, but it doesn't give any more FSB options. :(

There must be some way to increase the FSB in smaller increments, right....?

Thanks,
Martin

switch it to User Defined...

Ahhh... I didn't think there was any point in enabling the setting of frequency multiplier manually, as the CPU is locked, but obviously that menu item also enabled changing the FSB... :O

Thanks,
Martin :)
