Help me overclock this

Hi I finished building my new rig

A8N-SLi motherboard
3200+ winchester
2x 512 mb DDR 500 PQI extreme memory
Zalman 7700-CU heatsink/ Artic silver 5
74 gig raptors
NEC 3500A
samsung floppy
MSI 6600GT
500 Watt powersupply (25A on 12V)
thermal take tsunami dream case
voice controlled blue cathode ray lights

ok enough of that...

my computer is running at 2.01 Ghz right now at 25-27 C (i've been running for 3 hours)
I think that's pretty cool compared to my old 1700+

anyways I've heard that I can overclock this to 2.6Ghz fairly easy with stock voltage

BUT i'm a noob in overclocking...

can anyone recommend me what to do step by step?

Go to bios and change what settings/ voltages?

I would like to keep my voltage settings at minimum if not at a stock setting...

what do i have to do? thanks
 
There is an overclock guide in this very forum's CPU section. I think it's sticky (right at the top), so check that too.
 
thanks... i've read and actually tried... computer wont POST... why can't my memory run at DDR 500 spped? it's a DDR 500 memory... kinda weird... and also i should get 12 volt or close to it... but i get 11.77 volts constantly... is my psu bad?
