"There are no voltage settings in the BIOS so i thought maybe thats all i can go?"

Yea IMO, I'd say that pretty much says it all, although I was able to overclock my old P4 2.4Ghz to 2.66Ghz (CPUFSB) without a vcore voltage increase, but I guess this depends on the processor as to how much it will overclock with "stock" voltage.
You might need to disable some setting(s) in the bios that might be interfering with the overclock...
Or, maybe there's a vmod you can do to the board to increase the vcore with a pot...hmm

Need input from some of our "more knowledgeable" OCer's here other than me...
But I thought I'd at least acknowledge your post to let you know that someone took the time to read it...

Review at Newegg on this board.
ASUS P4S800D-X 478 SiS 655FX ATX Intel Motherboard
Deactivated Item

Bad OC abilities
Reviewed By: Gamer4u on 1/7/2007
Tech Level: high - Ownership: more than 1 year

Pros: Best motherboard I could find for 478 prescotts. AGP slot and 4 DDR slots.
Cons: terrible OCing abilities. No voltage adjustments.
Other Thoughts: just get a 775 and e6400 and OC it w/ H20 cooling.
