Newbie Requires Help with SE6

[Sigd]

Hi, I'm just starting to look into overclocking for the first time and I'm a little stuck.

Basically I all I want to do is increment my FSB 1Mhz at a time from 133Mhz upwards (Around 140 Mhz is apparently a recommended max for my MB)

I've installed MBProbe to monitor temperatures and have looked in my BIOS but the option to change to FSB speed is disabled. It only appears selctable when selecting the CPU speed (i.e. 800/100 or 800/133)

PC spec is Abit SE6 motherboard, Intel P3 800, 3*128MB SD-RAM, FSB 133Mhz, Hard disk running at ATA-100.

I've seen other posts where people are changing the FSb for the SE6 but I personally can't see how to do it.

I've check the SE6 manual to no avail ... perhaps I need to flash my BIOS?!?

Any help, suggestions or pointers to other resources would be appreciated.

Cheers.

:bday: Welcome to the forums :clap:

You may want to try posting in the Intel Motherboards section as you will get more of a response there.

I personally know very little about this board, but I think perhaps a BIOS flash is needed. Get the latest BIOS file from your motherboard manufacturers website.

Where is says "CPU SPEED" select user definned. That will allow you to go down and change the FSB.

Damn there's a lot of forums here! Apologies I didn't see the Intel Motherboard forums, never scrolled that far. Thanks David.

Fishy ... great, I'll try that tonight.
PS. Is that REALLY your picture ;-)

Yeap dats our fishy.. quite a hot lil number ain't she? :D Though you must be very careful.. the mods are extremly protective of the womenfolk here so you must be subtle in your flirtations with them.

I'm sure if they will say hello and welcome to you sooner or later.

Welcome to InsanityLand.. sorta like Candyland but with more white coats :eek: :beer: :rolleyes:

Thanks for the tip, I'll watch myself !

However I get the distinct impression that you've assumed I'm male ... and flirting ...

Probably cause the chances of you being a lesbian chick and a computer geek overclocker are even slimmer then the chances of Winblows98 not BSODing:beer:

those are some pretty bad odds me thinks.
