    You will see FSB speed .... increase it to overclock

    pretty much it ...it says 2 ghz up their ^^^ because it was downclocking becuase i wasn't stressing it

    here is a pic

    [​IMG]

    I am not 100% sure it will work with yall but it works with the M17x so i figure it will

    p8600 @ 3.17 ghz isn't bad ;)

    It works for Nvidia motherboards only before anybody asks.

    Also, crosspost.

    Yea i did cross post mostly because i don't see M98NU owners just going on the AW forum to find out how to over clock :confused:

    I think in this case it should be here ;)

    2 different laptops by 2 different makers but the same program :)

    clevo is serious about not overclocking. after seeing the np9262 refusing everything, i guess nothing can be done.


    lying i just though about it. the np9262 is locked at 1333fsb on the cpu. it can't budge pasted it. so i guess the bios locks up after.


    i wonder if the shut these at 1066. or maybe 1333 if the ram can accept 1066. i guess pinmoding what you guys think.

    i wonder if they slipped and put the voltage in the wrong section of the bios for the AW...if so...you could mod the bios and change it there..speculation of course. clevo on the other hand...are not that dumb...lol they make sure it's usually in a place where you cant touch it.
