Change the FSB.If it is stock with a 200fsb,then increase it to 266fsb in the bios.Simplest way.Goodluck.

Setting the FBS to 266 on an AMD chipset is extremely high.
On a CPU that has been running at stock for that long it may not be a good idea to clock it. But if you must, try raising the FBS to 212 and go up 2 steps at a time (ie... 212,214, 216....) testing for stability and keeping a close eye on temps. You can raise it until you get a bluescreen or excess temps. When you get to that point go back 2 notches and you should be good to go. And do not raise any voltages, as that will surely be the demise of your CPU!

Overclocking that cpu would be like putting a high performance exhaust system on a Chevy Chevette.
