    Hi folks!

    I have recently started undervolting my Z555DN, which comes with the P8600 CPU, and followed the undervolting guide here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=235824

    What's been confusing me is that Vista keeps defaulting the power profile to Vaio Optimized, AND the RMClock profile keeps getting reset to all default values. So what I'm not sure of is:

    1) What takes priority? VAIO Power Profiles or the RM Clock Utility's settings?
    2) Is there any point to switching to that RMClock Power Profile in power settings at all?

    I can see that my voltage is lower, and that me CPU temps are definitely lower... so hence being very unsure of which takes precedence.

    Appreciate the help!

    Thanks!
    Z
