You can't make any changes to the chipset or CPU clock through the locked HP BIOS.
Newer model Intel CPUs can be overclocked by use of an Intel utility. It is, AFAIK not available for older generation CPUs.
What may be possible, if you accept the risks, is to go to one of the many BIOS mod websites to see what they have available.
I am a volunteer forum member. If my suggestion helped you solve your issue, help others by marking that post as the accepted solution. Say thanks by clicking on the Yes button next to the "was this reply helpful?"
