I use CrystalCPUID on my Brisbane/Tyler AMD x2 CPUs because RMClock simply isn't stable with them. But CrystalCPUID only goes down to 0.800v. I can get it down to 0.775v by editing the .ini file, but it won't recognize anything lower than that.
Does anyone have a trick to get CrystalCPUID to recognize voltages lower than 0.775v?
CrystalCPUID - any trick to get voltages below 0.8v?

There is no trick, it is a design limitation. Those programs use VIDs to select voltage (a VID is just a code that is sent to the VRMs to tell them which voltage to use), and these vids are limited.
In fact, the 0.775V that you see in RMClock is just a tag associated to some VID, probably the lowest vid, and probably it doesn't correspond to 0.775V real voltage. It could correspond to the same voltage that the vid that is selected in crystalcpuid with 0.8V.
Just select the mininun possible vid, and check with cpu-z the voltage.
