If it's set at 4.5x66, try setting it at 3x100 and see if it works OK. The higher bus speed helps if it is available. If that works OK, try 3.5x100 to get 350 out of it.

Hi, I don't understand articles. I don't know what are jumpers and multipliers and where they are how to manipulate them. I have dell xps d300 (p2) 3years old intel chipset.

Your sytem speed is controlled in Bios. System bus for your system runs at 66MHz. The multiplier sets the CPU at a mutiple of system speed. To get in to system settup, go to the following webpage:
http://support.dell.com/docs/systems/dalex/Jumpers.htm
Your system support multiplication up to 333MHz. SoftFSB can give you additional system bus speed from there.
