    Download and install Nvidia System Tools
    NVIDIA DRIVERS 6.06

    Goto Nvidia Control Panel
    You should see new controls which will allow you to overclock.
    Hope that helps.

    I would go with Nvidia System Tools, but the others are good as well.

    Get Gpuz and see your default clocks and change accordingly..
    Also check the temp so that you don't burn your gpu..
    Do some benchmarkings and you are good to go..
    I have 280M but I overclocked it to >285M clocks..
