    Hey guys, I've tried undervolting my notebook using NHC 2.0 and managed to set my voltages down to this:
    6x .95v
    7x .95v
    8x .95v
    9x .95v
    10x .9625
    11x .9625
    12x .9750
    12x .9750

    There are a few questions I have concerning undervolting.

    1. Why do I have two 12x multipliers?

    2. I've set the voltages to the corresponding multipliers yet according to the NHC current cpu settings it's acting as if I hadn't undervolted it. The picture below is just an example. Sometimes it'll show the multiplier 12x at the highest voltage (1.1625) even when I've set it to .9750. Help?

    Have you tried using RMclock? If you haven't, try it and then post your results.

    Okay, so I switched to RMClock as suggested. Same story.

    Which version did you download? Try v2.30.1 here

    The latest one gave me more multipliers and a multiplier called SuperFLM so i rolled back..

    Yeap, I'm using 2.30.1. Maybe HP locked my notebook so I can't change voltage setting?

    I doubt it.. everyone else has had success. Did you untick Auto-Adjust Intermidiate VID's on the main profile tab?

    Heres the undervolting guide http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=124420&page=16

    My dv6000 with a TL-50 is completely locked. All of the voltage options in ntune, etc, are grayed out... any ideas? I have the latest bios but this was happening before as well, Thanks!

    You have to use RMClock. nTune is only useful for changing the FSB and memory timings. I previously owned a dv6000 with a TL-50 so I know.
