Hi, I just joined the forums, yay! ^^ Anyways I have never done this kind of thing before so don't hate me if I'm posting in the wrong place, it was the only place I could find to start a new thread so, here I am. ^^
O.K. So I do have a good chunk of experience with computers, been using them since I was 7 years old. I'm a hard-core MMO player on a bit of a tight budget at the moment and since my last computer died I had to decide between no games, or a serious downgrade to hopefully still be able to play until I can invest in an Alienware 18, obviously I chose option 2.
I have installed CPU-Z and will post all of my computers stats here:

Ok that was alot of typing, hopefully your still with me here.
So lets get to the heart of my problem.
Basically the options in my BIOS files are currently extremely limited, AKA locked and or hidden. I am trying to open these so that I can tune, or overclock, my computer to allow it to keep up with some of my games. I know all of the warning's about lowering the life span and blah blah blah, since I'm here, realize I don't care. I have downloaded programs that were supposed to be able to do this from outside the BIOS, and have contacted the makers of the computer, motherboard, and AMI the programmers for the BIOS, all of which helped me a grand total of not at all.
So good people of this forum, I beg of you to find a solution to my predicament that I currently find myself in, share with me your knowledge of the unlocking overclock properties from the hidden M.I.T. files.
Thank you all in advance.
O.K. So I do have a good chunk of experience with computers, been using them since I was 7 years old. I'm a hard-core MMO player on a bit of a tight budget at the moment and since my last computer died I had to decide between no games, or a serious downgrade to hopefully still be able to play until I can invest in an Alienware 18, obviously I chose option 2.
