Well, I don't own a Gigabyte, and even when I tried the Ctrl+F1 trick, nothing happened.

Well, fair enough—thanks for the heads-up.

Hey everyone—I've run into a bit of a snag. I'm running an nForce3 250 motherboard paired with an AMD Athlon 64 2.21, but when I boot into the BIOS, I can't find any overclocking options—specifically, that overclocking tweaker I was looking for. Does anyone know how I can actually locate those settings?
