hi KeelanL33T,

most laptops are designed not to allow overclocking. yes there are ways to do this, but due to heat and how most laptops are designed, you may end up with an expensive door stopper.

Re: Aspire 5100

If you have integrated graphics you won't be able to overclock. Otherwise, you need to find an overclocking utility that supports your driver.

EDIT: Damn, got ninja-posted.

Re: Aspire 5100

try these site:
http://laptoplogic.com/resources/detail.php?id=15

there is another one but i checked just now and i think the utility for download is virus infected. you can Google search 'SetFSB' and i believe it will give you the homepage (proceed at your own risk ).

Re: Aspire 5100

yup it does not have mine either it could be as i said previously that not all are designed to overclock and if there is a way, the util may not exist as of this time.

Re: Aspire 5100

i agree. unfortunately without the util we cannot do anything. the BIOS settings would not allow it. i still have to see one brand or model that would allow OC in a laptop (without using third party tools).
