Try programs like SetFSB.

thats about it if you have a locked down bios. Beware of PCI frequency changes aswell! ;)

P3's can run on three FSB modes, 66/100/133MHz. check what type of ram you have first before you overclock as this my limit what speeds you can over clock to. if you are running PC133 then you should be able to reach 733MHz without any problems.

Some motherboards have more fsb options however ;)

Do as it says... and read basic overclocking guides? ;)

Google is your friend... aswell as the search button. :)

Lol, "noord brug", there's this thing called jargon, it's the perfect excuse not to translate such things.

As for the error, I'd guess your chipset is not supported. Find out what clockgenerator the board uses and beg W1zzard to add it to systool.

Actually, try selecting the Epox D3VA in systool, samechipset, long shot though.

Which type of MB do you have? If you have manual see page for Overclocking. Also, you shouldn't have a problem find it on internet as a PDF file :)
Some motherboards allowed overclocking only with jumpers on the MB ;)

As he stated in the topic start, it's a Compaq machine. They don't come with overclocking options nor a manual for the mainboard.

You will run into similar problems: Dell won't help you overlock. Add to that that workstation/server class boards often have less options to do so as well.
