It's not hard, simply go into your bios at startup and increase your FSB there. It's probably at 133 now, so increase it , say in steps of 5 mghz, and see with each change if you can boot and if the system is stable.

The FSB is the only way to do it but you'll be pushing the processer faster voiding any warranty you had on it.
