If they prevented overclocking it would be into the BIOS. Since they must be using some kind "normal" motherboard, it would simply be a matter of flashing the BIOS with one downloaded from the motherboard manyfactorer's website. If thats not the case Im sure that there are another way ... cause something that can't be overclocked = ... Everything can be overlocked!! CPU, GPU, Buses, Mice, CD-roms, Cable modems (Illigal!), Calculators, Cell phones and I could go on for hours
