Usually it's done in the BIOS, but it depends on what BIOS settings you have available. What motherboard do you have?

Your multiplier setting is locked at 11x...there's no way to change it, so your only option is to raise the FSB.

You had better listen to Jam. He has given me advice several times in the past. Pretty much has been RIGHT ON. The times he was
NOT RIGHT ON, I probably would have to blame myself, for not explaining the problem completely.

Now fess up! Did you explain it completely to him the first time? Or NOT!

Defending People we believe in Here. JAM is #1 IMO here. But there many other great ones here as well IMO.

Getting tired of dual post here folks. But I do understand how it can happen.

If you didn't get the answer that makes your computer run sweet, than dual post by all means. I understand that the original post kind of fades off into the sunset(Just my way of thinking). But post (with the same alias).

Just trying to keep this place the best it can be.

YO

ClockGen (http://www.cpuid.org/
clockgen.php) is a nice program for
software OCing. It's mainboard or at least
chipset based so you need the correct
version for your board. I hope its in the
list!

But remember, if you raise the FSB usually
the PCI will raise too and if that get's
above 37,5MHz you run into trouble with PCI
cards and onboard devices. If you have a
PCI lock in your bios option you should
activate that!!!
