Is it possible to get a different BIOS loaded onto a GX240? It is running the 845 chipset and a 1.8 P4. It is one of my kids computers and I was hoping I could get a bit more juice out of it. Obviously the Dell BIOS won't let me overclock it.
Never mind I think I found a tool.

I'd have suggested looking at LinuxBIOS (though I guess it's called coreboot now 
) because that's the only alternate BIOS I know of...kinda curious what you did TBH

Damn the chip is PLL chip used is hard locked. Nothing I can do to change it. No OC.
