Has anyone successfully overclocked p7805u CPU?

[DemonBG]

Once again i seem to have a locked FSB. It seems one day i can adjust it through Kravis's modified setFSB and the next it no longer works.

If anyone has any advice of what to check i would greatly appreciate it.

I'll start apologizing for resurrecting this post, but I've been spending my nights researching these forums looking for some clues on how to do the TME pinmod on a P-79 mobo and didn't find it.

My CPU is a P8700, and the mobo looks a lot like the P-78, same positioning of processor and northbridge.
It's bottlenecking FPS on most modern games, and I'd like to try the overclocking to see if it helps. Graphics can be lowered, but CPU-related features often can't.. Undervolting has already proven successfull (with a 0.2V/15c drop) which also could be a good sign for overclocking potential.

I haven't opened the notebook yet (prob. gonna do it today) to find out if I'm TME-locked, but I guess it is, seems to be the same for all gateway FXs.

Do any of you know if the same rules of pin modding (to enable SetFSB to increase my 266 bus speed) will apply to my model?
Maybe TANWare can give some insight, for what I read you upgraded your mobo from 78 to 79 right?
And to clarify, if in fact I finally manage to do the modding, is the overclocking reversible? (so I can switch between "factory" FSB values and "overclocked" values using SetFSB without having to remove the soldering)

Thanks for all that you guys already posted.
Even if I dont get any replies from this attempt, it's been a fun read

I can not speak for TME modding on these boards other than it has been done. If you unlock the FSB by default it will run at 266 and then you will need a software/bios that can change the default. This means the default is always available.

Yes I changed the boards but both were 266 FSB................
