I reduced the view size to 120 percent. Go to Page 27.
Press DELete key to enter BIOS Setup.
Use Down Arrow key to highlight - Fox Central Control Unit
Press the Enter key
CPU Frequency Setting should be set to 333 (333MHz)
Intel processors are 'Quad Pumped'
333MHz x 4 = Approximately 1333MHz. (1332)

Note the version of the BIOS program also.

Think this can damage the motherboard or processor?
Have you ever tried or know anyone who has?
Perhaps you should trade out the E6550 for a Core2 Duo that has 1066MHz for a Front Side Bus (FSB), and leave overclocking to someone else.
Why? Is that bad overclocking in this situation?
No, but IMHO it is beyond what you should try undertaking. Is there anyone you can contact that has overclocked before?
Umm, I'm not a novice in the field of computers, but it's true that I've never done overclock ... Thanks for everything, we'll see what I do ...
You're welcome, and thank you for the rating!
