Hey everyone, i'm facing a problem with MSI Afterburner.
I can't unlock the sliders—it just stays at 0 and doesn't move anywhere:

I tried disabling updates through regedit, edited the msiafterburner.cfg file, but it didn't work on Windows 7. So I switched to Windows 8.1. I also lowered my GPU temperature to 25 degrees and used Furmark to stress it, but still nothing happened.

🙁
I know some people will think it's crazy to overclock a laptop GPU, but I've done it before and it worked fine.
This is really important for me because it boosted my gaming performance by 8-15 frames per second in the games I play every day.

Please excuse my bad grammar—I'm just a 13-year-old boy from Turkey, and my main language is Turkish.
My specs are:
AMD Radeon HD 7600M + Intel Graphics 4000
I5-3210M
8 GB DDR3 RAM

Avoid pushing your laptop beyond its limits. Its cooling system isn't designed for overclocking. The cooling mechanism is intended solely for maintaining performance at normal speeds.

I thought someone would say this again, but I've got a smart cooling setup. I just want to overclock like before.

It looks like no one is offering assistance, but I think someone will come across this link for support. Anyway, you need to install the MSI Afterburner version 1.3.0.
