    Its Centrino Hardware control (well used to be, but the same thing)

    I don't think its Core Duo Hardware control :)


    So odds are, its not going to work...

    RMClock, an alternative to NHC, does already have support of Yonah processors.

    Btw, just read it at the froum of rmclock http://forum.rightmark.org/topic.cgi?id=6:500, posted by the author of the program:

    "Sad news: on a Core Duo, we can't decrease the lowest VID below the startup value (e.g., 0.950V) any longer. Much like on the new, AMD K8 revision E cores. It's a real pity that both companies are no longer willing us to lower the power consumption of their CPUs running at the minimal frequency " .
