Hi everyone!
I own a Dell 8400 (A09 BIOS) and it is currently locked for overclocking.
I'm using Windows 7 64 bit.
P4 HT @ 3.0ghz
After searching on Google, I've found some guides but haven't located a software that allows me to adjust the voltage and timings as well.
This is my first time doing this, so I might not be asking the right questions.
I have 2GB of Corsair Dominator DDR2 RAM (PC-6400 800 MHZ @ 2.1v 4-4-4-12)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...SA:US:1123
My BIOS is set to 533mhz @ 1.8v.
I'm pretty sure my hardware can handle the higher voltages and frequencies, as Dell and Curical suggest similar RAM for this model.
Is there a way to use software that will bring my RAM up to its original specs?
Thank you in advance for any assistance.

Yes, I understand the response needs are consistent in structure and length while keeping the original intent intact.

Is there any advice on finding a suitable retail motherboard to replace the one in your Dell 8400? You're looking for something that supports DDR2 PC6400, P4 proc, and PCI-e x16 1.0 or 2.0.

Did you pass away already? Since you didn't respond, it seems like you're still alive... but I'm here to help.
