    Hi, i just recently bought a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Xa 2528, i know it's one generation behind but bleh, not much of a choice.
    Anyway, i have a question.
    Running NHC, the clock is ALWAYS Set to 800Mhz, which kinda sux.
    i tried putting it to Max Performance, (so it goes to 2000Mhz)
    but it didn't work.
    I'd like my lappy to always go full 2Ghz, how can i achieve that or is there a specific program for AMDS?

    You can try just set the power option to high performance. Why would you want to always set it to maximum if there is no need for it? The CPU will load full tilt when the system requires it.

    cheers ...

    From what I remember, NHC is meant for Intel systems only. Get rid of it and your problems will be solved.

    Correct...vector12 try RMClock as it is better suited to the turion x2 TL series and will give you full control to undervolt the processor as well as better control of the cpu clock speed changes.
