"Solution: MOBILE (Only) Barton 2500 and 13x multiplier and above

This is for MOBILE CPU ONLY which are already factory unlocked

This will not help with locked desktop CPU's.

I had this issue on a Biostar Ultra motherboard and I know others have this issue where multipliers above 12.5x are not available.

This has been answered before, but it took some digging to find the information and I thought a summary was in order.

I used the "Socket wire trick" which involves taking a thin thread of copper wire (a single stand from a speaker wire I had), creating a tiny "U" and dropping into the socket hole.

The attached diagram shows the two holes that need to be connected. For me, this was the *only* connection I needed to gain access to the higher multipliers. Note that you will need to remove it if for some reason you need the lower multiplers again."
