First, please don't use Caps. Thats the quivalent of yelling. And Sunday is a day of quiet. Overclocking is simply Changing the Speed of your processor on your motherboard. Thats it. Its set to 1.5 2.0 3.5 etc... For < 333 its 66 x that. for Greater its 100 times that. Read up on your Motherboard. Be aware you can fry your chip this way though, and the performance increase isn't that great. -Richarfd

He was just overclocking his keyboard chip... :) The proper answer is to use a search engine to find the "Tom's Hardware" or "Anand Tech" WWW sites (or just search on overclocking). The simple answer is to change hardware jumpers on your motherboard or software settings in your system BIOS to increase your processor or system bus speed. To make sense of that, or more specifics (since system specifics are different), see the previous answer. NAR Northeast Regional Contest Board site - points and more...
