installed a tl-64 in bios its says 2200mhz but in windows properties only says 789mhz ,ive also noticed when i click on some websites my favorites it does go up for a split second to say 1500Mhz then goes back down again.is there something wrong wit the cpu and i do have the latest bios installed so icant figure it out its the same with xp and vista

just checked with a program called cpu-z and yes core speed is under 800mhz
the core voltage goes up and down too ive noticed ,also checked on my old notebook and shows up as it should a celeron m cpu and 1600mhz so it seems my old notebook it runing faster -
Your CPU Throttle to save battery power and reduce heat.Don't worry CPU can automatically accelerate to it's maximum speed when you doing some process power hungry task
-
what you mean by cpu throttle can i not set my cpu so its runing at full speed all the time like it does on my own laptop
-
is there anyway i can set my cpu at full speed if this is correct 789mhz seems a little slow to me for a tl-64
-
No way to stop processor throttling.(Only on Laptops)
-
my other laptop stays at 1600Mhz all the time
-
there must be a way to get out of throttling mode wht the point of buying a new cpu if it only runs slow most of the time
-
-
Use CPU-Z as monitor -
ok would have been nice to give it a bit more speed if possible
-
One of my friend is having the same problem. The processor speed for his Turion 64 is showing below 800 MHz. He is still not able to find a solution. Try contacting the Support guys.

if you go into the empowering technology settings you can adjust the CPU throttle, set it to maximum and your CPU will run at 2.2ghz
you can also right click on the battery/plugin icon in your tray(bottom right corner of screen). put your mouse on 'CPU speed...' then select maximum
but I would not worry about it, if you computer ever needs a little bit more power than 800mhz, it will automatically move up to a faster speed. -
its ok sorted now ive found a program called speedswitchxp where you can set the cpu to max performance and it works but im not going to use it all the time as it will probably make my cpu much hotter

There's a bit of misinformation in this thread. Yes, you can choose whether or not you want to throttle your CPU:
In Windows Vista, click your battery icon next to your clock, and you will see 3 options:
Balanced: Power on demand. This will throttle the processor when you don't need the power, but can crank it up to full speed when needed. This is what you should use when you are plugged in and want to keep your laptop cool.
Power Saver: This throttles the processor to its minimal speed (around 800MHz in your case). This is the best option when you are on battery power or if you don't need the speed and want your laptop as cool as possible.
High Performance: This keeps the processor at full speed all the time. It also makes it nice and toasty.
I've noticed that AMD's do a poor job on Balanced power mode. They can't seem to find a good mix and generally always run at full speed or minimal speed no matter what. For my laptop, unless I'm gaming or am running something that requires full power, I always keep mine set on Power Saver. It's cool and quiet, and there's still enough power even at 2x 800MHz to do normal tasks. -
im on windows xp are the options he same as vista in the power options

tl-64 only showing up 789mhz in windows properties
