Stevo, Overclocking can be done by changing resistors on the processor board, or by changing some settings in the PRAM, I think. This needs good soldering skills or some tinkering deep inside the system software, and will give you a slight speed improvement at the cost of (maybe) more crashes.

If it is a Yikes model, I'm fairly certain that you will have a jumper block you can remove and move some pins around. If it is an AGP model, you will have to do some soldering. -Jonas -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5
