    Ok I been reading in numberous post of people who's system has NOT been fixed from the downclocking/overheating problem? Seems every post about the M15x has people saying they are having problems. Will the people who had their problems fixed with the new bios please post and tell us how the system is running now AND what test you performed, thanks

    There is a poll about this thing. There you should find the awnsers you are looking for. Just look a few pages back for it. I think a majority (aprox.2/3) said their issues are solved. I don`t know about the current situation. Maybe its time to renew that poll to get some more recent infos..

    More than 30-40% of the people still have problems with downclocking (with new bios version)... not to mention touch controls, and "minor" things like that!
