May I know that if I have P4 506 2.66GHz, can I overclock it?

If yes, how?

My Computer spec :
P4 506 2.66GHz
512 DDR PC3200 Ram
no graphic card and audio card ( graphic already sharing 64MB from Ram)

Thanks.

I am new in overclock, never test before, so I need some detail instruction.

This is my father computer, I do not hope to break in, thanks.

If you can, tell me which combination is the best, which mean overclock to which speed, I am using default Intel Headsink.

Ok Guys, I need some help now, yesterday, I try to overclock my computer.

I am using Foxconn motherboard, so I use the Bios SuperSpeed setting

I set it to
[manual]
[140 MHz] - [deafult : 133MHz]
[1.55v] - [default : 1.5v]
[Ram : 266MHz ] - [default : 133MHz, if not wrong ]

And Now it is down, so can anyone tell me how to set it back to default setting?

The Bios won't even boot, the screen is black, and the Fan, CPU, HD all running, just that it show red light. How?

Thanks

when I turn it off, change the pin from 1-2 to 2-3, then turn on, or wait a while change back to 1-02 pin then just turn on?

Which one is correct, or neither? Just pull off teh battery?

Hey, Guys, if I just overclock till 2.84GHz, it will not shorten too much on the life span of processor right?

Besides, what is the highest but still safe clock for P4 506 2.66GHz
