Overclocking

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Hey all, I have read that you can over clock your processer to make it go
faster and i no that alot of people dont advise it but my processers max
speed is 1200mhz but runs at 700mhz how do i change this? do i need to
overclock?

Sure that it runs behind the specs of the processor.Try, if intel,download the
processor frequency utility from intel,or if its a P4 the processor info
utility,then
see what specs it gives you.For overclocking,try search at google.com
Be advised though,you better know the pros and cons of
overclocking,if...youre
board is even set up to change the settings.

I believe what's on the web site is that your motherboard can handle up to a
1200 mHz processor. What they're referring to is if you buy another
processor.

Overclocking is fairly easy if you've got the right hardware. BUT, it's
also easy to destroy your system while doing it!!! I'd suggest that you go
to http://www.overclockers.com/ for more info on how to do it.
