310997 2005-01-05 16:19:00 There is no such thing as overclocking software for CPU's.

Most over-clocking is achieved either by changing settings in the bios or by changing jumper positions on the motherboard.

Have a look at this site. (www.overclockers.co.nz)

On a personal note, let me just add that you won't get any significant performance boost from overclocking a Celeron. A bit like trying to polish a turd in some respects.

I'm not saying you shouldn't do it but it is a futile exercise and over-clocking is at your own risk.

310998 2005-01-05 20:35:00 its still depends on what motherboard you have, some manufactures release programs to overclock from windows, easytune4 comes to mind but it is only for the chaintech mobo (correct me if im wrong)

their are a few others around, but i havent tried them......

Haven't tried it but quite a few post claims that it does work
still think overclocking a cel 500 is a waste of time though
