I just got an old Compaq up and running:
900MHz AMD Athlon (Thunderbird) (100MHz x9)
Compaq 06E4h mobo
The mobo has a 100MHz/133MHz jumper on it. Would changing this possibly OC my system, how much risk is associated with that (other than heat)? Also I was reading that compaq had taken another Mobo, changed the power switch and onboard usb and called it their own. Therefore I would be able to do a bios flash with the "other brand's" bios allowing me access to more "OC" options in the bios? Does this sound possible? Just tinkering here. but I would prefer to ask if I am being hazardous before I go and destroy something haha.
