    SetFSB does not work with these laptops because the PLL module is locked via the TME Enable input. If someone figures out a way to remove that (either a hardware modification or possibly BIOS/software depending on what sends the input signal to the TME pin) then we could overclock.

    It's all worthless when the PLL is set to TME (TRUSTED MODE ENABLE) read the datasheet, it's all in there in black and white. Until someone figures out what it takes to stop the TME from being activated the PLL is locked. The issue isn't knowing anything about the PLL, its knowing how the TME is switched on (ie is it BIOS controlled, if so a modded BIOS could disable it possibly, otherwise it'll probably require a hardware modification)
