Default Overclocking my Pentium 4.

Hey, I'm interested in overclocking my pentium 4 processor. I was told to take the FSB up by only 5MHz,run 3DMARK to check my computers stability and continue this process until 3DMARK starts locking up or if my computer becomes unstable.

The problem is that my BIOS will not allow me to change the settings that need to be modified and I'm not exactly sure where I should go to download a update for it.

if thats a prebuilt system then im afraid you cant overclock prebuilt systems have very little if any bios options. your best bet is to either buy a new motherboard or you could try overclocking software but these programs tend to have mixed results
