this is being clocked at 696MHZ, the original clock is 933MHZ, is there any way i can get the other 300MHZ or soo back?

I sounds like SpeedStep is doing it. Turn off the computer, plug it in to an outlet (with it's AC adapter) and turn it back on and see what happens. (you should get the extra speed back)

i just turned the laptop on a couple minutes ago, with the AC adapter plugged in.

should i shut down, and do that over?

Just leave it on and load the CPU.

jp198780 · 07-26-2006, 05:39 AM

load the CPU? get the CPU at 100%?

Yes. Your processor jumps up and down in speed when needed. So idling would bring you down, if you were doing heavy processing, it'll climb up.

i cant have it run at 933MHZ the whole time?
