    Well if you don't know how to over clock don't do it; all your gonna do is mess up the notebook than improve anything plus will you notice that much?

    Any how I see you have more post than me... hehe I don't mean to say this but you know if you don't know how don't do it till you read up on HOW-TO and what will the effect be if you did this and that.

    PS- If you do Over CLock and manage to maintain it correctly with out smelling Burnt CPU in the morning POST up hehe GOOD LUCK to you if you get it right =P

    I guess i can help a bit...

    I dont know what death mojo did to his.. For what I know Pentium M runs cooler AND better for over-clocking. Since noone can help you its time for TRIAL n' Error =P Try Over-Clocking your self with small incraments... JUST remmeber to keep checking on the CPU if it gets REALLY hot SHUT it Down!!!

    Restart your notebook and go to SYSTEM Bios is where you over clock the SYSTEM CPU. For GPU its on the desktop with the Nvida program but for that **** u gotta read since its more than one setting you gotta change I believe.(Remmeber SMALL INCRAMENTS!)

    It is not generally a good idea to overclock laptops. I have been overclocking desktops since before it came cool. The reason desktops are overclockable is because you can put in better cooling. You cannot do that on a laptop, and if you can overclock them it is usually not a large enough of an increase in speed to be noticeable. I have never wanted to overclock a notebook processor, so I have no idea of how to do it.

    I know you can overclock the video by using programs (I used RadLinker on my old laptop with an ATI x600) I never left it installed because I never got good enough results before I started seeing overheating problems.
