So ive been reading alot on here and finally got a story to tell lol

so i tried flashing my bios with the modded one.
failes because i was on 64bit so i then installed windows XP Pro (dual boot)
its messed my windows 7 up tho with genuine problems

anyway flash 100% right was on V1.10 now ime on V1.16 Modded

yet when i restart the laptop it resets back to the stock speed 2.5

then i loaded throttle stop and CPUID and Core temp
my temps are great 61C max on 100% Load stress test

next i will attempt to do the PPL mod
Someone advise me if worth doing?

ive sorted it now.

when i was doing the dual boot with windows 7 and XP it would make my windows 7 not genuine for some reason

but good thing is, is that i can dual boot both win7 and xp

what you think about me doing a PLL mod on this?
would it be worth or am i best just leaving it?
