Do a web search on Google for overclocking your motherboard, CPU and/or computer model (if major brand) see how others have done it. You could also check your BIOS for a FSB setting, or install a software utility such as CPUCOOL, which can reset your FSB from within windows.

it screwed up my whole computer and even after going into safe mode and unistalling I had to reformat and reinstall...stick with BIOS and just up the FSB....

CPUCOOL is for CPUFOOLS

1-Increasing the fsb isn't possible because you can't expand the bus (is max cpu adressable)
2-You can't get power out of the processor, onely put power in it.

Some computers don't have a BIOS or jumper setting for FSB speed (the board detects the CPU and sets the FSB speed). I have used CPUCool with no problems. So lets not insult the users of a program just because you don't know how.
