    Check the massive thread on throttling and look at the last few pages. There are links on at least one of the more recent posts.

    Reply back if you can't find it.

    ThrottleStop can help but it's only a band aid fix for a poorly designed laptop. Make sure you have a 130 watt DC adapter like a PA-4E and the latest bios for your XPS 1640.
