Subject: Overclocking a L100CT

The time has come to attempt the overclock on my L100CT.  I'm reluctant to go 
to 266 MHZ, would prefer 233.  Xin's site shows one method, and David's 
(www.silverace.com/libretto) shows another - I think, it's not clear to me.  
Has 
anyone done the 233 MHZ overclock that would be willing to share their 
hopefully 
successful experience?

[LIB] Overclocking, Frying Eggs, and Gaming on a 110CT

Subject: Overclocking, Frying Eggs, and Gaming on a 110CT

Hello Libretto Users...

Have you ever considered over-clocking and put it off?  I have for years... 
and now I wonder why.
I just over-clocked my 100CT and 110CT to 266.  Took less than 15 minutes 
each.  I have opened Librettos many times for testing and just looking 
however, so experience was probably worth 15minutes each.  I do have many 
hours of experience board soldering, but nothing this small.  But it really 
wasn't difficult by any means.  I have slight tremors and still managed to 
do it with good hand propping.  If you can safely open your Libretto 
(100CT/110CT) and solder electronics, you can do this!  : )  You might need 
a magnifying glass though. (I did)  It is pretty small.
One suggestion I didn't notice on the various sites about soldering on 
these tiny boards... make some sort of sheild from cardboard or plastic of 
just anything.  So that if any solder happened to drip or spatter etc, it 
can't hurt the rest of the board.  I just made about a 1.5cm diameter hole 
in a piece of thin dense cardboard (as I always do) to protect the other 
areas of the board from accidental spatter or any number of things waiting 
to happen.

To determine the correct jumpers, I used the pictures from this page of 
XIN's site which is listed on the Adorable Libretto site.  This worked for 
both of my computers.  This is a great site for sure.  : )
http://www.fixup.net/tips/


My Libretto 100CT and 110CT are running BIOS 7 and 8, 64Meg of ram, 
Win98SE.

Two processor killing drains that I disable during gaming are Norton 
Anti-virus and BlackICE Firewall.  So far I can't tell much difference on 
most programs, though I have not benchmarked them before or after.  I 
notice the speed much more in DOS than in Windows.  Duke Nukem, Shadow 
Warrior, Dark Forces, Witchaven, and Quake I (all DOS) are noticeably 
smoother.  In Windows, I am using Quake II as the benchmark in you might 
say.  Windows games that I can see a difference on immediately are Ultimate 
DooM for Win95 (was REALLY bad previously, but playable now), Ultimate 
PaintBrawl 2, Blood II, X-Men: The Ravages of Apocalypse, and Age of 
Empires II.  Those are all I have tried so far.
If you use your Libretto for heavy gaming, one thing I have noticed is 
lowering the sound quality in Windows based games (Quake II, Sin, and 
others that don't come to mind), significantly effects overall game-play. 
 I do not know the reason for this efficiency issue, hardware/software 
related.

Heat buildup:  I don't know about this.  Both of my Libretto's have always 
been like little ovens.  I don't know if I would even notice more heat 
unless something starts to melt.
One thing I notice is that the hard drive is scorching hot on Libretto's. 
 If you take the covers off your Hard Drive Bay, you could pop that little 
drive out and cook on it, or iron your clothes with it.  I am trying to get 
a machine shop make an aluminum Hard Drive Bay cover to see if I can't get 
some of that heat out of there that way.  If they can make them reasonably 
inexpensive (doubt it) I will try to sell some.  Just seems like a LOT of 
heat you could get out of these little computers to extend their lives.  I 
think I am about 10 years late with this idea however.  : )

Closing notes:  I seriously doubt this procedure is worth it on a 110CT 
(233mhz) unless you are running unusually heavy software loads and want to 
squeeze every ounce out the hardware you can. That 33mhz just really isn't 
that much in the scope of things, especially if there is significant truth 
to all the horror stories of heat related issues.   Processor speed isn't 
everything.  If you have a 5400rpm drive, try going to a 7500rpm hard drive 
if you want to see serious overall performance increases in environments 
like Windows that use the hard drive constantly.  On the 100CT (166mhz) the 
speed increase is noticeable and worth it to go to 233 or in this case 266 
if you want to risk it.  I could always see a difference between my 100CT 
and 110CT.

Anyway, that is my experience with over-clocking so far.  Just making the 
games better, not cooking breakfast with them.  If either of them burn my 
eggs, smoke or have undesirable characteristics, I will let you know.

[LIB] Overclocking a factory P120 50CT

From: Caleb Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Overclocking a factory P120 50CT

Hey all,
Quick question - with a late cycle L50ct that has the underclocked P120, 
do you still cut pin 15 on the W45C54A IC as part of the process?  I'm a 
bit unclear on the instructions.  Clearly I have to connect the top two 
solder points next to the processor in order to get to 133MHZ, and the 
bottom two to jump to 166, but I can't tell if the instructions are saying 
to skip the pin cut with the P120 or not.
Thanks!

FWIW a couple of weeks ago I overclocked my Libretto 100CT to 266 MHZ.  It 
worked fine without any external devices.

When I tried copying a complete cd-rom, the 100CT would crash  I noticed  that 
it was very hot.  The CD-ROM PCMCIA card was also extremley hot.  Sometine the 
100CT would not boot until it cooled down for awhile.

I decided to slow the 100CT down a bit and set the speed to 233 MHZ on Tuesday. 
 Since then I've coppied a lot of cd-roms and the unit is stable with the 
CD-ROM attached.

The PCMCIA card doesn't seem to be as hot (it is warm thought!).  It has 64MB 
RAM.

Subject: Re: [LIB] Overclocking 100CT
Dick,
I used Xin's procedure here:
http://www.fixup.net/tips/l100266.htm
It took me about 33 minutes to overclock from 166 to 266.
Going from 266 to 233 took about 50 minutes.
I used a Radio Shack 15 watt soldering iron and a magnifying glass.
To drop the speed to 233 I had to remove solder from the board.  I used 
Radio Shack solder braid (solder wick) to undo one jumper I had soldered, 
and one that was factory soldered.

It is a PAIN to get the motherboard area.  Getting the back off was simple 
enough.  Getting the PCMCIA unit off the motherboard required that you 
disconnect the LCD screen and rotate the MB so you can get at the last 2 
screws holding the PCMCIA unit on the mother board.  I accidentally knocked 
my 32mb RAM card out of it's socket so I had to remove the keyboard to get 
at the memory slot.  That's why it took me longer to down speed as I had 
never replaced the memory in a 100CT so I had to figure it out.

My advice is to overclock to 233 MHz.  Take your time and you should be ok. 
If you have never soldered before get someone else to do it for you.

Subject: RE: [LIB] Overclocking 100CT

Tony, this was exactly what I needed, thanks. Yes, I have soldered
before, so that is not a problem. It almost looks like you could put in
a mini 3 position dip switch and then just change the settings if it
gets too hot. This assumes those are not resistors in Xin's photos. From
Xin's pictures, it appears the switches would be set as follows (reading
from left to right):
266 MHz - OPEN CLOSE CLOSE
233 MHz - CLOSE OPEN OPEN
200 MHz - CLOSE OPEN CLOSE
166 MHz - OPEN CLOSE OPEN

There was some discussion on adding wires to connect the USB from the
motherboard and bring the wires out to a USB connector (see post on
1/14/05 from  Phil Nienhuis Subject: Re: USB [Was: Re: [LIB] slow]).
Some modification to tell the motherboard the EPR was connected would
also have to be made for this to work, but this would be a welcome
addition to the Libby. David Chien had described his addition of the
mouse pins on the side of his Libby, using the hole for the reset button
to bring the wires out. Using this technique and the miniature USB
connector, I could envision a small USB port on the side of the Libby.
Attach a dongle to convert it to a standard USB connector and we are
set.

Looking at the hardware manual, pin 68 of the docking connector is used
to detect the docking station, pins 91 - 94 are the USB port. At this
point, what I really need is a schematic so I can see what voltage level
to put on pin 68 and which pin (91 or 92) is the plus supply and which
is the minus. Also, whether any buffer chips are needed. 

Anyone have a link to the L100CT schematic? What about a schematic of
the docking station?

The description of the switches is correct.  Mine has been set to 166, 233,
and 266.  I never tried 200.

I don't have a schematic, sorry.

A DIP switch sounds interesting.  Space is very tight so I don't know where
you would put it.

I'm thinking about running the mouse port out the side as well.

Hi John,

David's page at http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ has info on overclocking the
L100 ... bear in mind that if you live in hot climates, you'll want to be
careful of overheating.

The RAM does seem to be limited to 64MB and since the board is proprietary,
there don't seem to be practical workarounds. Of course, someone might be able
to make up a new board and reprogram the BIOS to recognise it but given the age
of the Libretto, one does have to wonder how viable it is.

Cheers!

Subject: [LIB] Overclocking 100ct - the easy way
Folks,

Thought this might be helpful for people put off by the prospect
of tiny solder jobs on their 100ct mobo - I know that I was!
Maplins in the UK are now selling conductive pens from Circuitworks,
which deposit conductive ink.  I actually bought mine from RS
Electronics, as maplins didn't sell them at the time I first wanted
one. 

I overclocked my 100 last night in around 5 minutes and all works
brilliantly, with nothing hot going anywhere near my mobo.  The
difference is noticable in day to day use.
One thing: make sure you get the fine tip pen.

You can check whether everything's successful or not using
the WCPUID - I can post a link (when I find it) if useful.
I used Xin's diagram to overclock, which involves connecting two 
pads which are under the PCMCIA slots then Robert is your father's
brother.

Cheers,
Nick.
The same pen is available in the US at Altex Electronics.  I used the Micro Tip version to successfully OC my 100ct to 266.  Only time it has shut down was doing a complete virus scan with the Libby resting on a pillow.  Duh!  I also have a 40g drive which may contribute more heat.

  The same pen is available in the US at Altex Electronics.  I used the 
Micro 
 Tip version to successfully OC my 100ct to 266.  Only time it has shut 
down 
 was doing a complete virus scan with the Libby resting on a pillow.  Duh!  
I 
 also have a 40g drive which may contribute more heat.
  

This sounds good to those of us (me) to whom soldering means plumbing :-).  
My question is, how readily would this method of overclocking be undone?  Is 
the painted trace easily removed once applied?

Subject: Re: [LIB] Overclocking 100ct - the easy way

But I've been wondering just how one would go about o/cing the L100 to 233.

From Xin's page, it looks like you'd have to break a connect between the
two 
center pairs of solder points, 

Yep, that looks right.  Put me right off!  Hence I went for 266 ;-)
as that's easily un-doable if I had problems.

Not having been in there, I'm not sure what it would involve.  

The lump is around 2mm in size.  I don't know if it's a resistor or
diode or whatever.  You would have to desolder it IMHO, rather than 
just cut it or try to hack it off.  I don't have the skills or 
steadiness of hand to attempt that.

in the Florida heat, I'm wondering if this Libby is going to put up with 
clocking to 266.

Yeah yeah rub it in why don't ya?  I think many people are running
this throughout the world.  It *is* a risk, and only you can decide
if the improved performance is worth that risk.  If you're careful,
it would be easy to undo the connection by just scraping off the
connection that you've made.  At least, that was my first backup
plan.  The second backup plan was to use the replacement mobo out
of my spare 100ct with the slightly knackered screen :-D

Cheers,
Nick.

 Best bet however for those wanting a bit more umpf from their L110s?

 1) max ram to 64MB.  It'll make it run as fast as it possibly can.
 2) replace HD with 30+GB 9.5mm HD.  The latest HDs transfer data far
 quicker than the ol' 3GB HD on the L110, and that alone will make your
 L110 feel quite snappy.  bigger 2MB cache buffers also do wonders for
 snappiness and performance on the L110.
 3) defrag completely with a good disk defragmenter like Norton Speed Disk.
 (minor, esp. on a newely setup system, so don't bother with this unless
 you've got time and money to waste).
 4) Windows 98SE or lower.  Anything higher will kill system performance.
 Turn off 'display icons in all colors', use 16-bit display mode, turn off
 animated menus, turn the background to pure black, etc. will keep the OS
 running as quickly as possible w/o lagging due to silly shadows and
 animations. 98lite.net if needed to squeeze out extra performance.

 With maxed out ram, 30GB HD, and Win98SE optimized, my L110 is running
 quite snappily for the most part and does a great job as a portable
 laptop.

My 2 Cents / Sen / Ringgit / Kip / Pennies / whatever:

- I've always had 64MB in my L110 (Win'98)
- used it for two years, defragged regularly
- then upgraded to a 30MB HDD with Win'2K

I know it's subjective, but...  I have to say, it's definitely faster with
Win'2K and the 30GB HDD than it is with Win'98 and the 4.3GB HDD.

As well as all the other advantages (I don't think I've found a disadvantage
yet), it even boots faster...

I've still got Win'98 on the old HDD and on the odd occasions I've popped it
back in, it makes me smile by reminding me what a tremendous improvement has
taken place.

I would agree. I never had Win98 on mine, only Win95
when I first bought it, then Win2k after that. On the
old 2.1gb, it was pretty slow, especially in Win2k. The
OC helped some, but the real change came when I put in
the IBM 30gb HDD. That 2mb cache and faster access time
really helped a lot. Since I maintain dual boot with
Win95 and Win2k, I can say that Win95 will boot very
quickly, almost as fast as a resume from hibernation.
It is also pretty quick with apps while running. Win2k,
although faster on boot than before on the old drive,
still takes a little more time. Hibernation is pretty
quick though, and there is very little disk access at
idle.

 Output frequency is adjustable by applying logical 1 or 0 on three selector

 fairly similar to the desktop ones. So I expected to find bas speed of
 66MHz. When I looked on the board of the L110 I found that pull-up resistors
 are set for FSB speed of 40MHz. Any ideas what it means? I made pictures of

I'd be interested in any info wrt 110s especially if tested and working on someone

Subject: Re: [LIB] Overclocking

L110 is identical to L100 for the overclocking.  Only the jumpers initially
closed on the L110 is different vs. the L100 (because they've been jumpered to
run at different speeds).

Xin's fixup.net site has his take on overclocking the L1xx series, but
otherwise, those who have overclocked L100's and L110's using my site have no
problems thus far.  

90% success rate over 40+ people who have done the overclocking; the other 10%
have had to undo it because the CPU simply can't take it.

But as for another 33 Mhz on the L110, I'd say it's not even worth the trouble
of taking apart a L110, overclocking it, and then seeing if you've killed it or
not.

For the L100, certainly because you can turn it into a very useable machine
after overclocking, esp. given the low-low pricing today on Ebay.com.

Best bet however for those wanting a bit more umpf from their L110s?

1) max ram to 64MB.  It'll make it run as fast as it possibly can.

 But as for another 33 Mhz on the L110, I'd say it's not even worth the
trouble
 of taking apart a L110, overclocking it, and then seeing if you've killed
it or
 not.
233 MHz CPU is almost guaranteed to work at 266. It is not much faster, but
battery life penalty is neglidgable and you know the feeling when after you
change the oil, car seems to run better? This what I feel now with
overclocked L110! Still, would be nice to go faster, but nobody seems to
know about bus speed hack and I am somewhat reluctant to experiment because
parts inside are so small, they are almost impossible to solder.

 Best bet however for those wanting a bit more umpf from their L110s?

 1) max ram to 64MB.  It'll make it run as fast as it possibly can.
 2) replace HD with 30+GB 9.5mm HD.  The latest HDs transfer data far

 (minor, esp. on a newely setup system, so don't bother with this unless

Well, I am running Win XP for the following reasons:
1 Clear type fonts- looks so much better on LCD, you wouldn't want to go
back!
2 Built-in CPU idling- very important for overclocked CPU
3 No problems with standby or hibernation
4 Hardware support- recognized everything I have, including old IBM PCMCIA
CD-ROM
5 Reasonably fast if you remove some niceties from the GUI.
6 More and better features than 98

 4) Windows 98SE or lower.  Anything higher will kill system performance.
 Turn off 'display icons in all colors', use 16-bit display mode, turn off

Why black background? I think any color will do just fine as long as you

 By the way, can I attach pictures on this list?

You *can*, but PLEASE DON'T!  :-)

I believe there is a size limit, and that it's small, but I don't know for
sure. Much better to link if at all possible, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.

Hundreds of people will get your message.
How many have a 110 and want to overclock it?
Some of them (such as me) have extremely slow Internet access, and yet have
to pay an inordinate amount for it.

Thank you very much.

Actually, IIRC the list engine strips the attachments off ...

But these things aside, I believe the Adorable Libretto site run by David 
at http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ has links to all the overclocking 
info you're likely to need ...

Seconded. If possible, a link is much better. People behind company 
firewalls may find that large attachments simply vanish, and Hotmail (and I 
assume others) will get posts deleted if they exceed the mailbox 
size...sadly, it's the oldest that go first, not the one that causes the 
problem.

Based on the past 20-30 replies to me, about 90% of overclockers succeeded
at
getting theirs to run at 266Mhz w/o any problems at all.

Guess you're part of the 10% that'll have to undo or underclock to
200/233Mhz..

Use thermal grease between CPU and heatsink, run AMN Refridgerator or
CPUIdle
if you dont' have NT/2K/XP/Linux running (built-into these), and give it a
whirl.

Unfortunately, not all L100s can be overclocked successfully

  People have.  See List archives.
 
  In general, from what I've tested, two programs stand out for stability and
just works:
  1) AMD Refridgerator.  Very small program, so compact, takes almost no RAM or
HD space.  Excellent and works well.
  2) CPUIdle.  More CPU monitoring features, tray icon, but otherwise, does the
exact same thing as #1, but you have to pay.

  Figure go #1 for cheap  light.

Is Amhlt (sp?) still around?  I recall that used to be Neil's favorite.


An old version is still on my web site:

I dunno if it's been updated, hard to see how :)

Subject: Re: [LIB] Overclocking the L100

From: Raymond [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi all!

OK after my overheating experiences with my L50 clocked to 100, I figured 
I'd better ask first this time ...

Has anyone been able to clock their L100 and not have it overheat when the 
ambient temperature hits about 25ºC-30ºC and if so, what speed was it 
stable at? I'd *like* to get it to 233 by reconfiguring those solder bumps 
on the bottom of the motherboard but I don't really wanna go back to the 
stand-on-end-with-desk-fan setup I had to use with my old L50 ... going 
from 166 to 200 seems a little pointless and 266 is a definite overheat 
round here ... heh


Hmm, I'm not sure how often my Lib was out in the full heat in the summer, 
but I do know that I've had no overheat problems with it, o/c'd to 266.  
(I'm in Los Angeles, so it does get cozy here in the summer.)

266 fine here.. run it for several hours a day. Gets very slightly warm
