Is there any way to overclock my core i3 7100u? I know it is locked and completely understand the risks. SO, can anyone please help me? My laptop is HP notebook bs033cl. I am very desperate.

Sorry, but there is simply no way to unlock the CPU to overclock it. In HP laptops that allow that, HP provides software to do the overclocking from inside Windows, but your model does not support that, so there is no software available.

 

IF this were available for your model, it would be buried down inside the Advanced BIOS options -- but HP locks those out by policy.
