How do I overclock these? What are the things someone can Overclock?

ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400?

Is it even possible?



Intel Core 2 Duo 1.83GHz?


Tried overclocking the CPU in the BIOS settings but found nothing. So its not possible to do it that way? any other way




What other things in a PC can you overlock?

You are trying to overclock a laptop computer... The bios are very specific and you cannot overclock because of this and other factors. Build your own system, and you may be able to overclock to your hearts content

I totally missed that part about Mobility Radeon XD

Anyway, its very unadvisable to overclock a laptop, even if it supports it. Overclocking puts a strain on all the parts in the computer (or laptop), and in a laptop, everything's already strained. Heat management is a pretty big issue in laptops, and as you can guess, isn't very well managed to start with in laptops IMO (I know some laptops still crash due to heat when put on load... so...)
