Hi,
When i OC my 2500+ Mobile.. i know i have to set the Multiplier down and higher the FSB to 200Mhz, I know i have to do it in small ingreaments, something like 5 Mhz at a time... but what is a time?
For example: I set the FSB from 133 to 138, Now do i just have to save & reboot? and go straight to the BIOS and higher it another 5 mhzs etc. Or first boot to windows and let my CPU get used to the new speed?

Thanks in advance

That's basically correct, but I don't think you have to be quite so conservative. If it was my system, I'd just increase the CPU voltage to say, 1.6v, then just go ahead with the FSB at 200mhz & the multiplier at 11x. That'll put you at 3200+ speed (2200mhz). Then you can play with it from there....
