Can I overclock w/o BIOS?

[Rhonda85]

I have aquired a compaq presario with an athlon xp-2800 cpu. The motherboard is an asus a7v8x-la. When I go into the BIOS setup, there are no features to modify the bus speed or voltage, just the typical compaq OEM features. Am I out of luck when it comes to overclocking this?

Is this safe with a Compaq / Dell?

if the bios doesnt have support for it then youll probably only manage to muster a 5% oc on that and its not worth it... you wont even notice that.
