			<description><![CDATA[Hello there! I'm new to this site so please move my thread if its in the wrong area. I have a Compaq Presario CQ57 (2011) that I just reformatted to factory settings, and i'd like to see if I could beef up the power a bit. The problem; this things BIOS is locked up tighter than a crabs buttocks. Heating is not an issue, I cleaned the heatsink and applied fresh thermal paste to the cpu, and I have a 120mm fan I can sit it on. I just want to know how I can unlock the motherboard so I can overclock.<br />
<br />
My specs are:<br />
HP 3577 mainboard, chipset is A40/A50 series FCH. (I do not know what the PLL is)<br />
AMD C-50 dual-core CPU (Ontario)<br />
Samsung 4GB DDR3 1333Mhz<br />
ATI Radeon HD 6250 graphics<br />
250GB 5200rpm Samsung HDD.<br />
<br />
I'm not really expecting anything but I would be super greatfull if you guys could help me get in there and really start digging. If you need more info I can provide it. Thanks!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hello,<br />
<br />
The options in my BIOS is very limited, and I need to enable virtualization.<br />
I was wondering if anyone can help me unlocking this option for my BIOS <img src="https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" class="smilie smilie_1" />?<br />
<br />
The Bios Upgrade:<br />
<a href="http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-76825-1&amp;cc=us&amp;dlc=en&amp;lc=en&amp;os=4063&amp;product=3984784&amp;query=CQ60-420EO&amp;sw_lang=&amp;tool=" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softw...ang=&amp;tool=</a><br />
<br />
It says it's version F.54 A at the page, but when I'm using msinfo32, it says: BIOS-version/date Hewlett-Packard F.55, 29-03-2010.<br />
<br />
I don't know if that will cause any problems <img src="https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" class="smilie smilie_1" />?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance!<br />
