    If you go to the sound and video section I have a post where I mentioned a new processor, but this is for a computer I'm setting up for another person using my old processor and I need some help overclocking it. The mobo locks the ability to overclock the cpu through bios and the 2100+ is capable of 2.1GHz without overheating and I have a heat sink in place. Anyone know any good programs I can use to overclock it?

    You'll need to change the mobo. There are literally TONS of info on this processor as it is ancient. My desktop is an XP 3200+
