Overclocking laptops is never a good idea...unless of course you like the idea of something which once cost you a fair deal of dough turning into a useless hunk of melted plastic and metal.

I've done some moderate overclocks with my Acer Aspire 5100 using clockgen. It was clocked at 2GHz, and I got it up to 2.4GHz before I had any problems. It didn't even run that hot.

Clockgen *might* work for you laptop, but you'll have to figure out what PLL your laptop uses, which is a pain in the ass!

If you do get it to work, be very careful on how far you go, and watch your temps very closely.
