Ok, heres my situation. I ordered a 805 Pentium D processor with the intentions of overclocking it. Unfortunatly I wasn't thinking at the time and purchased a Intel board (975x)...I am unable to do what I intended. I'm looking for a cheap and easy solution to this issue. Could someone point me in the right direction please?

Fill in your Specs and we can help you more...
It is very hard to determine a precise problem when you have no idea what you need to troubleshoot...

The board is an Intel board. By that I mean it isn't made by Asus or Gigabyte. The chipset is the Intel 975x. As for the rest of the machine; Pentium D 805, Zalman CNPS9500, Corsair XMS2 DDR2 675 2x1GB, Radeon x1900xt, Antec Smartpower 2.0 500w. Here is a list of what I have incase I didn't give enough information.

You may be able to return the board if it is unopened, and instead buy a mid range abit or asus board that will be a decent overclocker.

I'm using it right now and the box has already been disposed of so I don't think I can return it...
