I've tried softfsb but when installed it was just a bunch of files, none of which was an exe. All readme's and files that needed additional software to open so I deleted it. I'm just wondering if theres any good, trustworthy programs to overclock the fsb outside of bios, as my bios streangely will not let me enter a freq/volt control/similar area... Thanks for the help.
try "clockgen" http://www.cpuid.com/clockgen.php , make sure the version you use is compatible with the chipset on your motherboard.
IBM considers its motherboard info on its OLD netvistas "confidential" even to their paying customers... So I can't find out what the motherboard is... I know it has a socket 370 compatible cpu and is a 810e intel? or something like that... but the actual manufactor and moedl is unknown... I've searched for hours for Netvista 2257 72u boards and found nothing...
It's probably going to be an IBM made board, and they're not going to want to tell you what board it is, companies like IBM are like that. Try and identify the chipset with a few bits of free recognition software, if you can get that far we might be able to identify what the board is based on.

Interesting, you get PR1142 on a 952mhz Celeron. I get PR3139 on an Athlon XP 3000+, so that works out as the equivalent of a 2600mhz celeron. Maybe that scale's a bit logarithmic.
