| What motherboard do you have ? Or have you bought the computer in a shop (or is it a Dell or something), because you won't getting any overclocking setting on such motherboards (the BIOSes are slimmed down) |

| well, then might have some luck, because Asus motherboards can overclock, you'll just need to flash the motherboard with a newer BIOS. Now you'll only need to find the right model-nr. Everest might tell you wich model it is, you can download it here: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html If it can't tell, you could also try to open the case and see if there isn't any model-nr written on it. You can download BIOSes overhere: http://support.asus.com/download/dow...Language=en-us Just be carefull |

you could try to find the model of the Asus board you have and give a software called [g]CLockgen[/g] a try.

| I read about flashing your BIOS but it seems to require a floppy disk... I do not happen to have a floppy disk drive. Any other ways? EDIT: I used EVEREST and it said I have an Asus K8S-LA, can that help you to help me further?  |

 , mostly because they are rather rare in the enthousiast community (and they are not even listed on the asus site) | |
