LightXxX, you have an overheating problem already with that laptop & now you want to make it worst by overclocking, give your head a shake boy!!! you already have a faster computer with that laptop compared to your emachine so don't mess it up. fix that overheat problem 1st before you fry the cpu.

I have a Intel Pentium T4500 2300MHz and MAX reaches 4096MHz and i just want it to be at 2600MHz...

you don't have your cooling under control when your current cpu temp is just under 63c & you want to oc the cpu so that the temp will be at 71c. normal cpu temps is from the high 20's to the high 40's but when running at 63c you are burning out the cpu. like i said before you don't know what you are doing.

according to this link http://www.lenovo.com/shop/americas/content/pdf/notebooks/Essential/G-Series/G550%20Datasheet.pdf there is no 4096MHz cpu because that is actually 4096meg of ram. the ram is not slowing done the computer because if using vista the ram is actually making windows go faster then if only using 1gig of ram. the videocard is the problem not the cpu speed or ram amount & there is nothing you can do about it as you cannot change them like you can in a desktop case.

try it yourself as not all desktop & laptops are overclockable especially namebrand computers. yours might be overclockable but we don't know as we don't have that laptop.

If you want to play games on it, stick to games made around the time of Quake 2 or earlier play minesweeper and solitare; most of those should play fine.

If you over clock by changing the frequency of the Front Side Bus you can cause premature hard drive, ram or anything that uses this clock frequency. Also all these components will run hotter making your heating problem worse. CPU speed is Front Side Bus frequency times the CPU multiplier. If multiplier is locked sometimes a program like clockgen will change the Front Side Bus so to up cpu speed. A lot of front side buses are locked also. Not over 20% is recommended and then that may be to much. Some people have figured out how to unlock some cpu's, like the Athlons and then I saw a hack to jumper cpu socket to fool cpu into thinking the FSB went from 400 to 533. Saying something is impossible alway made me want to do it anyway when I was a kid. Now I ask myself is it worth it, like in your case.
