LMAO! thats kewl your running XP(p) on a 500. Anyway, write to the manufaturer and ask them for the chips owners manual. your chip model number will be somewhere on the chip. they will send you the manual in PDF format so download arcrobat if you havent already

Go in the bios and run/change the fsb to 75 or 83Mhz if it will handle it.
500Mhz divided by 66fsb=7.57 clock multiplyer
7.57X75fsb=568Mhz
7.57X83=628Mhz if you can get it to run stable.
Just watchout that you don't fry your videocard because your also O/C the AGP card also when you change the fsb.
