Multiplier is locked on intel cpu's.
Jumpers look like the red thing in the picture they can be any color and can be marked as anything on the motherboard.
What motherboard are you trying to work on?

In my signature below I provide some files for overclocking, one of them is to sisoft's Sandra, a program for PC benchmarking and information, including a tool to tell you what motherboard you have. WPCPU also has this feature.

Thanks Pinky.

ok, I have a dell optiplex gn 5166L motherboard,
can someone please help me overclock this sucker or point me in the right direction as to where i can buy a pentium 233 MMX processor as "Sandra" tells me my motherboard will accept bigger cpu's

thanks

Pinky - which of these files is for "SANDRA" it is not showing on the list I got.

And, I have a 200 mmx processor that is currently oc to 233 from the jumpers on my mobo. I am replacing everything so I will have this one to get rid of. I have a gateway 200mmx - not sure of the compatiability of this with your dell but pinky might know!!!

Just go to www.pricewatch.com and search for 233mmx.
They start at about $25.00
