    I have an Asus A2500D notebook with Athlon XP-M 2133Mhz.

    The Max.Battery setting of SpeedswitchXP allows the notebook to stay at 400Mhz all the time, which is quite cool.

    Any way to force the CPU at 800Mhz (and not 400Mhz) regardless of the actual system load? That would be pretty useful when watching Windows Media or RealPlayer videos to minimize the need of active cooling - 400Mhz is somehow not enough in these cases, but 800Mhz is.

    Thank you.
