Clockgen could work for you... I read a review (in a magazine - no linky) and clockgen was used to OC a Dell... Limited results as you have no voltage control... Google it and download...

Clockgen on laptops is a pain i've tried it on my Dell 640m, if you don't have a Nvidia chipset it cannot read values and many of the Intel ones aren't programmed in so you cannot actually overclock.

My advise would be don't. Just streamline windows and keep things defragged

i tried the clockgen, way to complicated. im thinking that llwyds idea is the best

It is simple.. laptops are not made for clocking. They are made mostly for work.
