    you could get cpugenie and run the auto optimization wizard this will check for the lowest possible voltages for your cpu automatically.
    This program is very "noob" friendly.
    It will take about 3hrs for the tests to finish, when you d/l it you can use it for 30 days for free but it's worth to buy imo 15 bucks.

    The guide is well written IMO. Which part(s) exactly would you like help or clarification on?

    Just follow the guide step by step. It's not a difficult proposition.

    I cant even get as far as the second bit because RMClock doesn't have an advanced tab nor does it detect my CPU

    When you try to run the program or when you try to adjust something?

    AFAIK it is in beta (version 0.91) so maybe some problems, sorry it didn't work out for you.

    Weird. I don't have an AMD mobile CPU, so I can't help :( I don't know why neither of these programs are working for you. Keep Googling!
