how to over clock a p3 450mhz

Yep afraid your stuffed with most branded PCs

Your only hope is to change the FSB via a program called SoftFSB ,this allows you to change the FSB within windows on some PCs

Afraid I dont have a link for it atm ,but if you do a search for it you should find it.
Let us know how you get on

Btw the absolute most your likely to get out of a PIII 450 is in the low 600's
As for the warning ,it is extremly unlikely that you will cause physical damage to components at the modest o/c speeds you have in mind (as long as your cpu fan is working!) ,though there is small chance you could corrupt the data on your HDD if you exceed a PCI bus speed of 37MHz ,that would be FSB speeds over 112MHz for your mbrd.At about 39MHz PCI the risks start to get much higher!

Hi, I have an old Tiny PC (was donated) there weren't any fsb options, the board plugged and played the processor.

WARNING!
Attempting to overclock your CPU brings with it serious dangers, including possible damage to system components and loss of data. Overclocking will most likely void your system warranties. Overclock at your own risk. And don't say we didn't warn you.

ok i read the first artticle which was good the second article was not good, what the first article basically said was that i can olverclock my p3 450mhz to around 520mhz by changing the fsb i think all i need to know is hoe do i go about doing that can i do that throught the bios (press delete to enter setup) or do i have to open up the case and do something inside.

cheers
