hi there can any help me unlock my bios i saw there was a thread for a companion bios but not exactly the same one.
i wish to unlock the bios so i can increase the cpu speed and power. the cpu is running at 65c while under stress the power is limiting at 15 watts throttling the cpu speed.
i have tried under volting the cpu but it tends to fall down quickly. there are times when the cpu dose not throttle and goes to 22w on multi core and the temperature goes to 77c on core 1 and 76 on core 2 with and increase in speed from 2.2ghz to 2.8ghz about 25% extra.
i have a ssd in a caddy which i would like to dual boot from but it only shows as a dvd drive.
i am also going to install at external gpu
i was thinking of doing this my self but ive got cold feet.
hopfully i can provide all the info you need.
thanks andrew
