|  Can I OC a Dell Vostro 200 w/ E2140 As Existing?
Can a Dell Vostro 200 with an Intel E2140 cpu be OC'd?
I know the E2140 will OC like a bandit, but if I have to buy a new case, psu, mobo, it no longer makes sense to strip a perfectly working Dell just for the CPU. I don't even know if I could reuse the 2GB of RAM in it. |

clubs: | Sorry but the BIOS on all name brands are lock out so that you can't oc them .
Even the overclocked from factory units are locked from any more oc'ing . |

You have to remove the cpu and connect 2 of the "pads" on the underside. You can search out BSEL mod on google. There are many threads and pics. Conductive ink pens cost around $10 at radio shack.
