Thanks MMZ!

Bad news though. I got home, found a good pencil, unlocked the Duron. Slapped on an air cooler I had laying around (because it is a pain to mount the water block just to find it still needs unlocking), Set it to 1333mhz and it was stable in windows air cooled!

SO, I took the air cooler off and was tightening down the Lemon Block and CRACK!. Chipped the corner and killed it. I knew I should have put those 4 pads back on first.... Damn... Well this puts a halt to this project. The block is designed for a Duron1gig-1.3gig but they are like $35 new at the egg. Not sure I want to buy one just for this. Would almost rather wait a while untill I can afford a new XP1700+ and build a new Direct Die block for it. goingto check e-bay for cheap Durons....
