I have always installed this app on my notebooks, and was wondering: is anyone running it on Sony Vaio TZ?
Notebook Hardware Control (NHC)
This is what the app does:
- control the hardware and system power management
- customize the notebook (open source ACPI Control System)
- prolong the battery lifetime
- cool down the system and reduce power consumption
- monitor the hardware to avoid system failure
- make your notebook quiet

Best of all it's free.
I don't know if it supports Intel ULV C2D.
-
I tried running it last night. It runs but the CPU pegged out at max regardless of which power profile I tried.
-
try rmclock. It works with santa rosa. At least the beta, and it loads up faster than nhc because it doesn't require .net.

Bytheway, TZ is not santa rosa.
-
I just downloaded it....didn't like it. First thing that turned me off is all the mickey mouse stuff it loaded in the taskbar.
-
Very easy to switch off. It let's you tweak almost anything.
-
true, but nhc still doesn't work with the tz, while rmclock does.
-
I find the TZ runs just fine with custom profiles I created.
-
You mean you can set the multiplier with sony's software?
-
Most people shouldn't need to touch the multiplier. You could really screw your machine up if you go blindly upping the multiplier with no knowledge of what you're doing (like the typical user).
-
That would be dangerous yeah. NHC does it completly safe though.
