    Thanks for the info. Anyone know where I can download this without having to go to EVGA's site and have to register one of their motherboards to download this ??? Again thanks for any info. God Bless :)

    Ok the evga eleet tuning program was a NO-GO. Was able to obtain it, download it, and installed it, but it will not allow me to overclock my CPU as this utility will only work on certain EVGA motherboards. Anyone have any other suggestions ??? God Bless :)

    Since the Bios is locked on this laptop, has anyone thought of contacting the person on this website and send him a copy of the bios and see if he can customize the bios ?? Yeah it is an older laptop, but I am sure there are some of us here that would like to get a bios that can OC a processor and *MAYBE* even let us use HDMI with out GTX 280M GPU's !!!
