Hey guys, I have a crappy Dell inspiron 2500. It has a 800mhz celeron processor
.

It runs great on XP but it is a little slow.

Is their anyway I can overclock it to 1ghz+ If your bios does not support it because mine doesent

There is probably a way to do it but the effort would not be worth it and its generally a bad idea to overclock laptops.

You could probably use a program called CPUFSB but I don't think software overclocking is a healthy way to do it.

There are software based overclock's, but they aren't really recommended.

You can, but it is not at all recommended. You have a greater chance of damaging your system than achieving that overclock... and you probably won't notice a performance difference anyway.
