Hi ratan, Welcome back. Email me the specs and age of each system and I'll try to help you with the overclocking. There are some differences in chips for 133 and 200mhz, depending on when they were installed and which company built your system. There also was a lot of counterfeiting/remarking of INTEL chips by asians mostly with 133 to 166,some with 120 to 133 and some with 166 to 200mhz. The final test is you try it and if it works you have a good chip. Also any new chips bought from INTEL in last 6 months are pretty much built to meet 233mhz regardless of whether it was stamped 166mmx or 200MMX. After Oct 15, I believe, INTEL started disabling the higher multipliers for these MMX chips b/c the word got out very quickly. DavidG
