Overclocking

Operating a CPU at a higher frequency than it's specification allows is called
overclocking. If the CPU frequency is set at a higher frequency than it's specification
allows, it may or may not run at that frequency, depending on the quality of your
CPU and the extent to which the frequency has been overset. The mainboard
manufacturer highly discourages overclocking as it may result in data loss, CPU
burnout, system failure, etc.

Many Intel processors are frequency locked processors and are not able to perform
overclocking.  Regardless of whether the processor is a frequency locked, overclocking
may cause some processors to hang when turning on the system.  When the processor
hangs, the screen remains blank and the system does not boot.  To solve this problem,
do the following.

1. Turn off the computer and then press and hold the Home key on your keyboard

2. Turn on your computer, wait for five seconds and then release the Home key.
3.  Enter BIOS and reconfigure your CPU parameters as described in this section.
