First of all, you cannot change the multiplier on Intel CPU's. They started locking them at around the 200MMX series. You only have the FSB to work with now. To get it to a 133Mhz FSB (and it may not go that high), you may have to slightly increase the voltage to get it to boot and be stable. I can't remember what Toaster said was the max that you should increase it to, I think it was 2.0 volts (keep in mind that this is an absolute max and would require plenty of cooling, take voltages up in small increments and keep an eye on the heat!). You might want to start increasing the FSB in small increments and kind of "feel out" your processors overclocking ability.
