    Hi all,

    I was wondering if it is possible to overclock a very old laptop, can anyone assist?

    The laptop is an old Compaq Presario with a PIII running at 500MHz.

    Any comments/suggestions are appreciated

    Laptops generally have poor BIOSes and cooling... So I wouldn't expect a lot of overclock...

    I very much doubt it's possible. Even if it was, it couldn't overclock much. Sorry. :)
