Before you do it I suggest you read up on the subject. It is not hard to do but there are thing you must consider like proper cooling. The higher the overclock the more heat you must dissipate.
Here is one article on overclocking the P4.

what is 107F convert to Celcius?

Well I do not know much about P4s, however my AMD T-Bird OC'd from 1Ghz to 1.16Ghz now stable @ around 50C loaded and about 40C Idle. Normal it would be in the low 30s and loaded at mid 40s.

Your temps are fine. how far did you OC? As long as the system is stable and you have good airflow through the case enjoy the extra speed.
