I did this in the BIOS. Multiplier was 9 by default then I just put the frequency from 200 to 400 and when I saved and exited, the PC just shut down then started back up for about 2 seconds then it would shut down then start up again then in the end the PC would stay on then I'd look in the properties in My Computer and my PC still says 2.4GHz. Because I have the Antec 900 case, the fans span then stopped then started again etc. This is weird. I was told in the BIOS to set my CPU volts to auto so I did then just upped the frequency by 200MHz and so yeah, this happens.
I put everything back to it's default setting now. Can't figure out why it wouldn't go up to 2.6GHz haha.
