Nope, there is no way of overclocking that i'm afraid.
Dell use custom made motherboards, with overclocking completely dissabled. Sorry :(
To be able to overclock it, you'd need a new motherboard, case, cooler, basically everything except the cpu!

He says it's a Biostar motherboard. I'm not too familiar with those, I don't know if you can overclock that one or not?

its got some kind of overclocker thing on it so that it will overclock it more than a normal board but it doesnt have any program to actually o/c the chip
ya i got that mobo(didnt research it sadly) because dell gave me one with 4 pci slots and no agp or pci-x slots

Programs wont get you far enough. you will need an unlocked bios unless you want a 2-5mhz fsb overclock.. ;)

Canuto has a Biostar and overclocked is pentium d930 to 3700mhz, they aren't bad boards, but the voltage is set by %

biostar is gay and arent very good in my opininion go for a ecs if you have to choose between the 2 but since you already have one the bios is the only way to go
