I'm temporarily using a 9500 Pro with Catalyst 3.8 Drivers, and I can't seem to find the core/mem freq. controls anywhere in the driver interface. What's going on???

That's because they're not there.

You need a third party tool like Radclocker that will add an overclocking tab to the driver interface.

Also, you need a 9500 PRO that is 'unlocked'. Sapphire 9500 pros are unlocked, but lots of other ones arent, and if it's locked you'll have to flash the videocard's BIOS with a Warp11 bios in order to overclock it.

AMD AthlonXP 2400+ (o/c to 2600+ with 143 fsb)

You have to use a tweak utility to see the cards clock speeds. Go to rage3d.com and get you one. Then, to overclock your 9500Pro, you have to flash it's bios because it's clock locked.
*edit*
Cleeve beat me to it:)
