This thing has a P42.4 and a Asustek P4S266VX MOBO Sis 650 chipset .
Bios wont let me at any thing .
Any Ideas ?
 
No chance you're going to overclock it....Tried it alread, softfsb doesn't do anything, bios is locked....prebuilt computers don't allow you to overclock so you have to buy a new computer when it becomes obsolete.
 
I don't he'd be able to replace it easily....they are usually soldered onto the motherboard.
 
Yes, barring removing your BIOS chip (which as t0x1k says is probably soldered onto the mobo), you're not gonna be overclocking that thing.

@t0x1k: your sig says your 2.8 is running warm, what temps are you getting idle and at full load?
 
Well, you could always do what I did. I had a Compaq (((kicking myself till this day)))) that crapped out (big surprise). Bought a new mobo+case....re-used the drives,hdd,proc/heatsink,etc....and spit on the Comcrap mobo.;)

Click to expand...

I get 20C ilde, 34C load.....Yeah...they're damn low....but to me and being in a cold basement and used to getting 16C idle 24C load on a 1.8A@2.1, it's warm.(it may be the cheap fan on the heatsink thats not cooling good)
