Compaq BIOS

Ok, My GF has an old compaq with a P 166 MMX overclocked to 200 MHz using the jumpers. Is there any way, through the bios to get the multiplier over 3.0 ...maybe 3.5? So i can run it @ 233?? How do you get into the bios on this thing? Ive tried everything. If you need the model number I can post it but im @ home now so I dont know it...I think its a 6000 series..thow I may be wrong??Its from '96.
Any idearz?

Thanks

Even if you do get into the bios those settings will be locked out by compaq

yep, and if its that old, chances are it wouldnt have the ability to do it in the first place

And F3 to get into BIOS for my dads P4 Dell that I have since gutted for parts then blew up the P.O.S.
