    Hey Guys

    I'm just wondering if I can get my K1000 to operate at 700MHZ on battery seems like it's limited to 200MHZ?

    I'm using Throttlestop for the CPU also

    Cheers

    Josh

    No that won't happen... It's done to prevent your battery from being overloaded... Running it at full speed on battery power will kill the battery after a few cycles and possibly overload and blow the battery and your machine...
