Maybe I'm just unlucky :)Sat, 26 Jul 2008 23:45:32 GMTFreakShow!RE: overclocking laptop with t5550http://forum.micromart.co.uk/Topic300717-29-1.aspxcheers wiz, i tried but it wouldn't run. maybe a bad download, any idea where to get it and what version to use with the 2 cores stressed?</P><P>freakshow, if i was to be honest, you are much more of a computer wiz( soz wiz, your name just fits here) so if you are not sure then i might be stuck. i will let you knowSat, 26 Jul 2008 22:49:11 GMTmarc.knuckleRE: overclocking laptop with t5550http://forum.micromart.co.uk/Topic300717-29-1.aspxMore to the point, how do you go about overclocking the laptop?<br><br>No BIOS options and (at least in my case) speedgen and others would not register the PLL chip. Many a program wouldn't find it for me either.<br><br>In the end, I was able to overclock my GPU quite heavily, but I am stuck at 1.6Ghz on the CPU.<br><br>If you have success, please share the programs you used :)Sat, 26 Jul 2008 22:03:23 GMTFreakShow!RE: overclocking laptop with t5550http://forum.micromart.co.uk/Topic300717-29-1.aspxOrthos should run on Vista. :)Sat, 26 Jul 2008 21:57:47 GMT-Wiz!-overclocking laptop with t5550http://forum.micromart.co.uk/Topic300717-29-1.aspxi am wondering if it is recommended to OC a laptop? if so is there a program for vista similer to orthos for testing?Sat, 26 Jul 2008 21:48:48 GMTmarc.knuckle
