Ahh.. That's terrible.

But that should at least let you overclock the 1.4GHz Pentium M to 1.53GHz. Not to mention have the memory bus running at a higher speed too.

my biggest worry is what heppens if my sysem freezes and i have to hard reset this thing?

there isn't a 'bios reset switch' like there is on my desktop

any suggestions?

thanks

Dear Adrian Wong, I'm a Spanish reader Of this page, I think its wonderful, I tried to Overclock my Asus M6726NELH, Dothan 1,6 ghz to show overclock capabilities in dothan in my webpage, www.xtreme-condition.com AND the first time I tried to overclock my dothan it incrEased aproximately tu 1,8 ghz, I do not remember how exactly it was, I tried CY28346 It look fine first time, I had an 1,8 dothan for the same price, I tried son benches, and it was cool! But after by a windows XP error, it had shut down...

Next time I tried to overclock it, the #1J error, appeared, do you know could it have ocurred?


Thnx I love this page, its very useful

I am a Toshiba M30X owner...I tried the clockgen , it works+ there seems to be an AGP PCI lock! The problem is that although I can set lets say..1704 Mhz, the actual frequency of the laptop remains 1502. I confirmed this with cpuz and speedswichXP (excelent application for laptops). How on earth can I save the settings of clockgen ? I even placed a shotcut on startup folder , the clockgen appears on win startup but the frequency remains 1500!!

If it hangs and refuses to reboot, what you can do is press the power button for at least 4 seconds. That will power off the notebook.

As a last resort, remove the battery and turn off the AC power. But you normally don't need to do this.
