A problem with OC

I want to OC my CPU.
I have Matsonic MS7117C(with VIA Apollo Pro) 133MHz MoBo. In the BIOS, there's an option to change the CPU speed, or, just the FSBxCore Speed.

Even if I change it, the computer still detects my CPU as 800MHz(the CPU reg. speed).
Why?

Assuming that you're using and athlon or duron, you need to unlock the L1 bridges on the CPU. It can be done with a pencil. If you're using a Pentium or Celeron, there's no known way to unlock those.

You will need to change the front side bus speed to overclock a pentium chip. This will also overclock all of your devices. Memory ,cpu,pci bus.agp bus ,etc...
This is the core clock speed in your bios.

I aint signing nothing!!!

I'm using Intel 800EB MHz.

How can I change the FSB speed? I'm changing it in the BIOS, but it doesn't work...

I have a PIII 1000E and the multiplier is locked on 10X.

The only way to Overclock it is setting upper the FSB frequency.You can find it in your bios setup as FSB freq or similar in Jumperfree mode.

This is the greater "bottle neck" of intels processors in overclock
