    I have read that NCH is not compatable with the Santa Rosta Chipset.

    I have installed it as an alternative to power4 gear because i want to have more control over the CPU.
    However the following options are greyed out.
    1. CPU SPEED CONTROL - I can't enable custom dynamic switch.
    2. CPU Voltage control - I can't make any changes
    3. Although I have enabled ACPI control it just says that ACPI is not configured on this system - How can i fix this

    If anyone can shed some light on this can you please let me konw.

    I want to try to improve battery life and NCH just gives you more options.

    Thanks for the help

    You have already answered your own question. :) There is nothing you can do, you'll have to wait for the next version of NHC.

    Try RMClock, usually it is handles better newer chipsets than NHC.
