I have a D610 with a 1.73 ghz processor. However, the processor runs at 798 mhz max. Any ideas why?

Fragrant Coit 10-22-2007, 06:00 PM It's probably just SpeedStep - it lowers the Multiplyer to save power when it's not working hard. Ad 10-22-2007, 06:00 PM Po`Girl 10-22-2007, 06:32 PM Yes, it`s designed to save battery power in Notebooks. You can usually override it,in the Power Options applet in the control panel,or you can download SpeedswitchXP (http://www.techspot.com/downloads/3344-speedswitchxp.html) which wil make it easier. waldorftbeagle 10-23-2007, 11:30 AM I think I may have realized this issue. I have been using a non Dell Power supply. My deel power supply died. The power supply I am using will allow me to use the D610 but will not charge the battery and is not recognized by the Bios. I have purchased a power supply for my D610 and it should arrive on Wednesday. I hope this will fix the issue. What do you guys think? Tedster 10-24-2007, 01:46 AM this belongs in the correct forum. howard_hopkinso 10-24-2007, 02:00 AM Yes it does Tedster and I have just moved it. However, pm`ing a mod to get it moved is better than posting to say it needs moving, as only mods can move threads. ;) Regards Howard :) waldorftbeagle 10-24-2007, 11:09 AM What is the correct forum? |
