hey guys
Im having a little trouble overclocking my pc- this is my setup:
AMD 3200+
Nvidia 8800GT 512mb
1024mb RAM
MSI K8 4382M4 mobo
basically my mobo is pretty crap. the only option it gives me to overclock my cpu is to change the multiplier, so i tried moving it from 10X to 11X but everytime i do that it just resets straight back to 10X, it just refuses to change (and yes, i did save and exit setup) is there a specific reason it wont let me change it or did i do something wrong? Im new to cpu overclocking so I kinda need ur help
Oh, and it lets me change it down, but not up
Thanks

The multiplier on your CPU is locked. The only way to increase the clockspeed is to increase the bus speed.

Then you stuffed. There might be an option that enables OCing hidden away somewhere. Some mobo's are like that.
