You have to void your warranty and find a custom BIOS that had the advanced options re-enabled.

I can't really hepl you with this, you can look at places like this:
Insyde bios mod requests. - Page 1091
and
you search here
Acer motherboard BIOS updates downloads

I have no idea if the wimsbios.com site is legit. Again, you're on your own to find a modded unlocked bios.

thanks for that very useful sites seems like a major hassle to me and probably not worth the effort.

was hoping maybe a fellow acer user knew of a overclock program that would work on the win7 generation of laptops.

oh, well

you could easily brick your laptop during the BIOS update. Don't do it unless you feel very confident you can do it.

Hey mate, I own a similar laptop, the Acer Aspire 5750 Laptop, and let me tell you, these laptops are terrible for gaming in general, and will not see a major improvement through overclocking. Your best chances of improving performance in PR would be to purchased a low-end gaming desktop, but if you're short on cash, these are ways you can improve the performance of your laptop.

1. Turn all of your settings to low or medium/low, except for view distance, which is critical in PR.
2. Delete your BF2 Cache
3. Download and Run CCleaner. CCleaner - PC Optimization and Cleaning - Free Download
4. Defrag your harddrive
5. Download MzRAMBooster, run it every time you load a new map to get rid of the previous statistics still using up your video run.
6. Download Process Lasso and set pr.exe & bf2.exe as a game/multimedia process
7. Scan your computer for viruses. I'd suggest Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
8. Close all other programs while playing PR

By following the steps shown above, I was able to raise my average FPS in PR from around 25 to 40. However, if you're still getting a terrible FPS in PR (<25fps), then proceed with either the following

9.a) Turn your view distance down to around 75%, avoid operating assets or taking on roles which require long-distance spotting. Acting as a medic will be a great alternative.
9. b) Keep current video settings, but adopting a slower-paced gameplay strategy in PR. Such as sniping, scouting, commander, etc.
