Can somebody tell me the easiest way to overclock it? I already downloaded the preware. I'm not too good at this stuff, so I need a bit of help. Is the 1.7ghz too overpowerful or is it a better option then the 1.5?

It takes awhile. Try not to do anything on it while its downloading but keep an eye on it so you know it didn't stop downloading.

To overclock open preware and search/install the application govnah.
Then search/install uberkernal. Its under kernal -> experimental.
Or you could install warthogkernal (which OC's from 1.5 - 1.7) depending on what you want. Either kernal is pretty stable.
Your TP will ask you to restart, do it.
Open govnah and under frequency it should say the clock speed - adjust accordingly.
I wouldn't want to go faster than 1.8. It will cause the touchpad to unexpectedly restart itself and drain the battery faster than necessaryOriginally Posted by useref15

alright, so I screwed something up. When I go the preware app, I get an error now, and all the options aren't there anymore. No more patches tab or the uberkernal thing. I was trying to overclock it, but now I can't. Should I delete the preware and reinstall it?

How have you had yours? I was working good too out the box for a while. I've had mine since early last sat morning. My bro, dad, sis, cousin and etc. All are reporting the same issues. That after a couple days of use it gets worse. My cousin said the logging in the background is the problem. He had me set logging to min. Wow, I am seeing difference. I did this whole post without any lags. I now say its worth the 150 until the next problem.Originally Posted by Mark Antony
