Overclocking on an OEM mobo?

mk_ln · Oct 28, 2007

Hi, i have OCed on a few different OEM mobos in the past, but they had a different chipset and were supported by SetFSB and clockgen. this time i am not as lucky as the board is an intel D945GCL from eMachines. on a different board, i have OCed the celeronD 356 to around 4.3GHz stable on stock cooling...so i know what the processor is capable of. is there some way to get a bios with OCing options or unlock OCing options w/in the current BIOS?

thanks in advance.

try hitting control + F1 or something similair to unlock the ocing section of the bios. if your bios doesn't have ocing options, you can try going to the emachine website and see if they have a newer bios. otherwise you will have to find a modded bios.

Try flashing the BIOS with this version;
