If you are on a laptop you probably wont be able to overclock anything on your motherboard, at least through your bios. If it is possible its extrememly dangerous in your laptop. Most laptops have clocking functions that change your clock speed based on your available power. For example, your laptop runs at 2.4 GHz when plugged in, and 2.2 when on full battery, and 2.1 when the battery is almost dead. If you find a way to bipass the lock out its possible you could 'break' this algorithm, and end up fixed at one speed all the time.You can use coolbits though to overclock your video card, ive used that on my desktops and it works well. But you will still need to worry about overheating.
Not if it has an AMD in it!For reference... AMD doesn't like the term netbook used for netbooks that use AMD processors.For reference... I made a funny.
Do not risk overclocking your laptop just buy a desktop. With laptops it is better to just place a clock on the lid of the laptop.See so you can have a clock over(a clock). Hehe. eh.he............ he......................ha.....hoohoo.......bark.....purple drink.....k ima stop now. peace.
The fact that this is in the first page strikes me. How can you call this a guide? About overclocking or about overwasting anyone's time? I imagine the immense number of overclockers created from this article. By now they should be at least 450.

My ultimate goal as a laptop overclocker is to have a laptop melt in my lap

Exactly! Who would trust anything like that anywhere near their lap?

I have already overclock my laptop, but now the temperature was really high, and I get my battery have a short time. :((
