It will be true hell and agony to overclock that system. Since it is an OEM system, the MB and BIOS will have ZERO overclocking options. It isn't impossible though. I wouldn't bother personally on a OEM.

1. You can increase the voltage by Pin Moding.
2. If the CPU is unlocked (pre week 39) you can also increase the multipler by pin modding. http://www.ocinside.de/go_e.html?/html/workshop/pinmod/amd_pinmod.html
3. Very unlikly to work but try it, there are programs that will allow you to change the FSB while you are in Windows. I can't remember the name of any off the top of my head. Somone fill it in. The software FSB change has a high failure rate because most of the clock generaters that OEMs use physically cant do anything than the stock FSBs (100, 133, 166, 200).

Also I dont know, but your board might have none or poor harware monitoring. Try uses MBM5 (motherboard monitor 5) on the board to see if you can read anything from it. If you are doing voltage modding I HIGHLY recomend you have a CPU temperature sensor available that you can watch in real time. I dont know if OEM MBs have temperature sensors.

I personally wouldn't try using a software FSB changer. Pin modding is worth it. Also if you are doing a voltage mod, YOU MUST change the stock heatsink to something better.
