Is there a way I can get a little more out of my Pentium 3 750? Like a utility? I have a big fan on my Pentium , so I don't think it'll over heat. I won't be going to high either. I just want a little more juice.:grinthumb

SoftFSB? Where can I get? How can I do it in the BIOS? I have a large fan on the processor and a fan blowing on my tower. The room is kept a little cool also.

You need to go into the BIOS and increase the FSB (Front Side Bus)
Current = 750 = 7.5x100
Simply increase the FSB for example ...
7.5x110 = 825Mhz
7.5x133 = 997.5Mhz
133 will get you a Ghz but i'm not sure if it will go that high
also, you may need to alter AGP/PCI bus dividers if you can if you go high, otherwise the PCI/AGP slots will run too fast (i.e. out of spec)
Post back if you need more information, i'll try to point you in the right direction

I'm in need of some specific instructions (i.e. "look here...") because i don't really know where to find the fsb in my BIOS. thx in advance!:grinthumb
well it's kinda hard to describe for you specifically, because almost every BIOS is different but It is generally found under chipset features.
P.S. I really recommend that you read a little more up on overclocking your Processor! I am a semi-intermediate overclocker and am currently building a custom water-cooling rig for my PC and overclocking is not an exact science, so I recommend you look before you leap.
Processors can get expensive after melting down 2 or 3 of 'em

A large fan? A high RPM one? I don't think this is always true...large fan = high RPM value.
