    Hi everyone !

    I have this notebook which has only windows 7 x86/x64 drivers on acer website . So i started to search for drivers for xp x64 , i've managed to find everything and make it work except the power management . So my notebook now is always on performance mode instead of balanced . The thing is that i don't want it to be working constantly on performance mode because it produces more heat .

    So is there a way to make it use balanced mode without the ePower management drivers specified from acer ?

    I've tried with notebook hardware control , rmclock but all the profiles are blank and can't select them.

    If anyone could help me out i would be grateful , because i would love to use windows xp .

    Cheers

    Andrew
