try check the jumper setting for the cpu type, if you m/b is capable to except 
pentimum overdrive chip...you may be able to overclock it.  the old way is 
just pop down to electronic shop to get a crystal clock to make it goes 
faster.  It is all depend how fast your m.b can take...it is no good to over 
clock your cpu but the m/b can only run at a slow speed 

a short period won't burn your cpu :)
