Default Can a motherboards bios be upgraded to support faster CPUs? How?

Hi
The subject says it all. Heres the info on my motherboard:

System
Manufacturer : VIA Technologies, Inc.
Model : VT8363
ID : FFFFFFFF-FFFFFFFF-FFFFFFFF-FFFFFFFF

Mainboard
Manufacturer : Jetway
MP Support : No
Model : 8363A-686B
System BIOS : 12/14/2001-8363A-686B-6A6LMJ19C-00
Chipset : VIA KT133/A


The manual says this motherboard will support an authlon up to 1.33GHz, can
the bios be upgraded to support faster CPUs? What BIOS upgrade would
I need? (I find jetways web site confusing)

Thanks
F
