Just found an interesting article on o'clocking:

All that glue on a Palomino? My CPU is a Thoroughbred, I believe.
What is necessary here?

I have been trying to capture some VHS tapes at 720x480 using HuffyUV and
am
getting large numbers of frame drops - e.g. about 60 one drops and the
same
number of two drops in 10,000 frames. It really screws the sync.

I defraggged my partition and have set my WD Caviar HDs to Use DMA if
avail.
It made no difference, even though I did not touch the box while
capturing.
The above efforts were with VVCR and VDub. I did try the little AMCap
with
the WMDs but it crashes when I specify the capture file :-(

The CPU is running at 1.69 GHz - about x17. Now how about overclocking?

I am a newby to this game and looked at the BIOS settings for help.

The CPU Ext Freq is set at 100 MHz.
The CPU Freq multiple Setting is [Menu or Auto] = can see no way to
specify anything.
CPU Freq Multiple has a max setting of [9.0x/17.0x]

The present FSB speed is at 2x99 = 198 MHz.

Is the the chip locked or is only way to raise the FSB?

My ram chips are 2 of: KINGSTON KVR333X64C25/256 256MB PC2700 333MHZ
CL2.5
DDR DIMM

Advice much appreciated.

TIA
