I've been trying to undervolt my laptop for quite sometime now. I've used RMclock but doesn't work. I get it up and running but I don't get the advanced cpu settings tab nor do I get a voltage reading. I have no clue why I don't get a voltage reading.
*side note* is there any way to unlock the bios? |

in general on laptops, no you cant unlock the bios. if ur trying to get a cooler running system/longer battery life put it on a balanced power plan. dimming the display definitely gets you more time. use windows mobility center for that.
also you should still be able to get in a limited bios, mine has a setting called "Battery Optimization" which is basically like Intel Speedstep (lowers multiplier/voltage) when its unplugged. i hope any of this helps, gl

Ah. But I have seen guides on undervolting through software. I want to undervolt bc the asus g51j runs very hot and I want the extra battery life

I'm not trying to sound rude, but shouldn't you have thought about that before you went and bought easily the hottest running mobile platform available.
