    Here are the specs:
    http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pr...ngid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10118224&catid=25313#

    I tried using the hlt command in RM CPU clock utility, like many people have suggested, but the version I have does not even let me check the box. It is an option though, but the writing is in grey and cannot be chosen.

    I was wondering if maybe there were some other options i could tweak to lessen the damn noise!

    Under "advanced CPU settings" , I can choise the ACPI state to modifiy but there are the only options i could change:
    Enable CPU low power
    Enable Northbridge Low power
    Enable FID/VID change
    And i can change the clock divisor to the following:
    8,16,32,64,128,256,512

    Here are the following states i can modify:
    C2 (stop grant)
    C3 (sleep)
    C0 (fid/vid change)
    S1 (pos)
    S3 (str)
    C0, trottling
    S4/S5 (STD/SOFF)
    C1 (Halt)

    What should I do?
    Thank you
    Chris

    What version would that be?

    Also, what CPU does your computer have? It's possibly a newer CPU that RMClock doesn't support yet.

    The version i got is 2.3
    I figured that RM clock utility didnt support my cpu, thats why i was wondering if i can tweak the other settings to help lessen the noise.
