While you restart you computer. You can see the screen where it says Detecting IDE and testing memory and the memory started to jump. At the bottom of the screen during the restarting of your PC you can see press Del to Enter BIOS or setup. Enter the BIOS. Goto the First option of your Softmenu and you should see the CPU clock speed, mutiplier, voltage, RAM voltage, and your FSB.
Two ways to overclock you can do it by changing FSB. If you chose to do this you can either use the add FSB option of goto user define under your CPU clock speed and choose one of options that is higher than your stock speed to overclock.
Second way is yo change your multiplier. WEll that is easy if your're runing x10 now you can change it to x12 x13 or whatever. Clock rate is done by calculating.
FSB x Multiplier so if your FSB is 133 and mutiplier is 10 then you have 1333mghz.
I don't recommend overclocking your 1.2 to over 1.4. If you have case fans lets say 5 or more and a good 4800rpm+ fan. I don't recommend anything over 1.6g.
You might also have to adjust your Voltage from 1.75 at its stock to maybe 1.8 or so that is if all is not stable.
