XPS B866 with a Different Processor Troubles

A while ago, i mistakenly removed the heatsink from an xps b866...it was kinda glued to the surface of the processor, so that proc was dead for good. Recently though I came across a 650mhz proc p3 that i could use in this machine. There is a problem though, the dell wants to run it at 667 and well the p3 dosent like that and locks up shortly after i boot to 2k pro.
 
My question is:
Can I somehow underclock the processor from dos preferably cause i cant get into windows enough to launch anything, id be happy with it if it only ran at 500 mhz just as long as it will run.
 
 
Thanks for your help
