OCing slow junk cards usually just results in hotter junk. If you want to game, get a faster card. You'll never be able to OC the GT210 enough to play Crysis 2 at 1680x1050.

some softwares work wonder:

MSI Afterburner (never tried that one):

eVGA Precision (currently using this one on windows 7 64bits):

Nvidia nTune (used this on windows 7 32bits, doesn't work for me on windows 7 64bits.)

ATI Tray Tools (worked well in the past, now I can't get it to overclock on windows 7 64bits)

Oh and don't overclock wildly. overclock the GPU only (not it's RAM) 5-10 mhz, test, overclock 5-10 mhz, test... until you hit the cap, then you reduce clocks a few steps (maybe 25-50 mhz) and it will be the max GPU stable clocks 24/7.

Then you put back the GPU core clock to it's default and you overclock the RAM the same way you did for the GPU. When you find the max stable 24/7 RAM clocks, you have found the best overclock for you graphic card. Don't push it too hard, don't change the voltages nor timings. When you do overclock it's better to put the fan to the max to make it heat less.
