Re: How to overlock
It's going to depend on your motherboard, and the bios options.
Complete specs are really needed. Power supply, ram etc.

Re: How to overlock
everything.
motherboard - make and model, assuming this is a custom built pc. If it is OEM built (Dell, HP/Compaq, Acer etc.) there will not be overclocking options in the bios. ram - make and model. Value type ram doesn't take well to overclocking. The ram voltage (vdimm) usually needs to be raised to the manufacturer's maximum for stability. power supply - make, model, and the output (in amperes) for the +3.3, +5, and +12volt rails. This will be on the label on the psu itself, it's not available via software. Overclocking greatly increases the amount of power required by the cpu, as much as double. All other devices in the system. - Not as important as the components previously listed (including the cpu, which you already mentioned), but anything that uses power can have an impact, specially if you have a marginal power supply.

Re: How to overlock
The OEM computer makers, such as HP, use their own custom bios. They don't put in the overclocking options, things like voltages and bus speed are not user adjustable like they are on a motherboard you put into a custom build. You basically can't overclock an oem pc through the bios.

Re: How to overlock
Like grimx133 said, oem manufactures use custom bios that eliminates the features needed to overclock. Your sol.
