I have read the entire guide, and even downloaded the 64-bit version driver( even though I'm running 64-bit Windows 7).
However, the damn program doesnt detect my CPU (P8700)! I have tried ticking "detect on startup", but it just doesnt recognize it!
Because of that, do you guys think it safe to go ahead and start undervolting anyways? Does anyone else have this problem
Does anyone here use RM Clock to undervolt their CPU's for better battery life and production of less heat with regards to the CPU.
I use it and the lowest I can set it to is 0.95, I have selected mobile in the advanced settings CPU type. My results are:
T8300 CPU
8x-10x multipliers set at 0.95
11x at 0.975
12x at 1.00 .....

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I just had Windows 7 reinstalled as my harddrive died. But after the reinstall, Windows 7 only detects my laptops native resolution (recommended resolution) as 1280x800.
I know this laptop has the 1440x900 display, I have coworkers with the same laptop and their display shows the "recommended" is 1440x900, and I know that was the case before I lost my drive and got a new one with a reinstall.
This laptop has the NVIDIA Quadro NVS 160M adapter, and I have the latest driver for this from NVIDIA.
Why does windows think my native resolution is 1280x800. I can use the NVIDIA driver to force it to go to 1440x900, which works. I was just wondering why it is doing this. Is there some inf package that I need from Dell?
I'm using Dell Inspiron N5110 and recently did fan cleaning on my laptop. Once I've completed the fan cleaning, Â my laptop doesn't detect my charger. No error message appears and my laptop only can be switched on by using battery power.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to upgrade my SL510 (28577MG) with a new Crucial M550 512GB SSD. The Crucial website says that the drive is compatible with my laptop: [URL] ....
Unfortunately neither the Windows 8 Install CD nor my BIOS can detect the drive. Here is a list of steps I tried to solve the problem:
Change the SATA Controller Mode Option in the BIOS from AHCI to Compatibility
SSD does not get detected in BIOS2. Update the BIOS to the latest version 1.52 (6JET94WW)
SSD does not get detected in BIOS3. Run the 2.5 inch SATA Hard Drive Firmware Update Utility
[URL] ....Utility can't detect the SSD / find any updates4. Look for a firmware update on the Crucial homepage
[URL] .... There are "No firmware updates"...
I also installed the SSD in my desktop (Gigabyte GA-MA770-UD3, 770) where it is detected in the BIOS and in Windows 7. So it is definitely in working condition.
I have a brand new xps16, running wonderfully.
I've modded the desktop Catalyst 9.4 drivers, games perform well, better than the provided Dell Catalyst.
What I would like to do however, is be able to alter the GPU clocks. Not by much, just a little.
I've tried AMD GPU clock tool; but this does not let me fix new clock values for the ATI 3670. I enter a new value, and they revert to the default right away
My friend's macbook (white plastic, 2.0, napa/core2 before santa rosa platform) isn't starting, and I have no idea why. He initially asked me to replace the top and bottom casing. I accepted, and ordered the parts. Around the time they were supposed to come, I took the computer apart completely (required for the repair), but one of the parts was delayed, so the computer sat splayed on my desk for a week. I didn't exactly stack textbooks on it, but it also wasn't covered in anti-static wrap. So, now, I finally got the part and put it back together, and the computer doesn't start. At all. The screen doesn't go grey, the 'sleep' light doesn't turn on, the fan doesn't start - nothing. The magsafe light is green, so the power is going in. It's also worth noting that I have no battery for it, so it's all on A/C.
Does anyone know what's wrong? My two hypothetical solutions are (a) I need a battery, or (b) the logic board is dead due to static.
How likely are each of these scenarios - especially the logic board one? How possible is it that it was static overloaded?
I was wondering if it is possbile to undervolt my 720QM processor and if not will there be a possibility in the future?

Using RmClock, I reduced the voltages to the minimum and ran Orthos for 12 hours.. without a crash... It seems sort of wierd being able to reduce the voltages to the lowest amount allowed for all of the multipliers,
I get how to do it, but what do you guys recommend settings wise and what program should I use ?
View 8 Replies View RelatedSo I recently installed Ubuntu 9.10 64bit on my M1530 and have a dual boot setup with the other OS being the NSA's Windows 7 64bit.
This is my first Linux experience and I am rightfully enjoying it. Thus far I have been able to figure things out OK, but I am a total Linux newbie and dont know of a way to undervolt.
I havent figured out if its possible to run RMClock and I dont know of a Linux alternative.
Most the stuff I find on google is years old and Im thinking there have been better solutions since then .....
I want to undervolt my Presicion M4400 as per this guide:
The "Undervolting" Guide
A few questions as I embark!
1) Does it matter how much power my M4400 draws when I do this? That is if I later attach USB drives, add a 2nd hardrive to optical bay, should I take these into account? I assume no but just checking.
2) After doing the first stress test I got max temps of 76C on CPU, after lowering the max 10.0 multiplier voltage and running it for 10 min I got max temps of 79C. Something must be wrong?
In RMClock's CPU info page (see pic. 1) the "current" 10.0x multiplier reads 1.1250V when Im doing the stress test although I've set the 10.0 multiplier to 1.1500V (default max is 1.2500V) on the profile page (see pic 2).
Shouldn't the read outs correspond with the set max voltage? Also on the RMClock CPU info page (see pic. 1) the "maximal" 10.0x readout is 1.2500V which is again different from the set 1.1500V.
Is this normal or have the setting not been saved or something?
3) On the advanced CPU settings page my thermal monitoring is not checked (see pic 3) this differs from the Undervolting guide screenshots and is not specified if these should be on?
ive got a xps m1530, with a t5550 processor.
While gaming im reaching 90°C.
Should i contact dell ? I bought this laptop on july 2008 without any extra warranties and i think that i have 1 year only of warranty that comes for free right?. The downside is that im in south america so it might take a while...
Can i contact them and a get a replace?
I've been using RmClock to undervolt my Dell Inspiron E1505 for awhile under Windows XP and its been great. But recently I went from XP to Windows 7 32bit, it stopped working. It'll just run the default voltages. I've tried running it under administrator and Windows XP compatibility mode but still doesn't work. I was wondering if anyone knows how to make it work under Windows 7 32bit?
View 10 Replies View RelatedSince the P8600 is a fairly common CPU on the XPS Studio 13/16 I thought this would be worth posting.
Stability was confirmed at each FID with Orthos for 60 minutes. I chose to disable SuperLFM and IDA. Under 100% load, at 2.4GHz the reported CPU temp dropped almost 12 degrees C. Obviously the difference was less at reduced speeds, but still worthwhile.
I do not notice any difference in the way the computer responds or performs, so as far as I am concerned this is free cooling. I was able to get 4hr 15min on the 9-cell battery with screen brightness @ 30% and low CPU demand (IE8 with wifi) so it probably modestly improves battery life too.

I was just wondering if there's any way to undervolt it in OS X like there is with Windows computers?
So, the famous notebookreview undervolting guide is aimed for computers running windows, so I'm wondering if there's a guide to undervolt cpu/gpu under OSX? Since opening the computer to apply AS5 (and void warranty) isn't worth it, undervolting is the next best thing to dropping massive temps for doing virtually nothing.
View 10 Replies View Relateddecided to try out undervolting to solve what i suspect are cpu overheating issues which causes the gpu to downclock when playing games... i know others have done the same.. question is, how far below the default voltage have you guys gone? the default for the 12x multiplier is 1.1365v and right now im testing 1.0125v... i think ive undervolted a considerable amount already but have only gotten 1 or 2 degrees off my max cpu temp... also, do i have to undervolt all the multipliers? or is it ok to have my 12x multiplier at a lower voltage than the other multipliers? i dont really have the time to find the right voltage for all the multipliers
View 10 Replies View Relatedtrying to do the undervolting mod on my 1410 SU2300, and I can't seem to find any details on the proper multiplier/voltage for RMClock. I'm using der_mali's tutorial for undervolting, and I've found that the proper multiplier is 6x (it seems that the SU2300 only has this one). For those who have a 1410 SU2300 undervolted, what settings did you use? Any extra things I should be aware of?

Second:
Im not a big fan of hardware overclocking/undervolting (anymore). (Referring to the "Insyde hacking" thread.)
Ok, with that in mind; how do I software undervolt the mobile core i7 processor?
Tried good old RMClock, which doesn't work. (It hasn't been updated for years, so I didn't expect it to).
CPUgenie... didn't work.
Crystal CPUID.. didn't work.
Now I'm out of own ideas, started searching. The only thing related to my "problem" (which actually isn't a problem, I'm just a big fan of undervolting and want it that way), is this thread:
ThrottleStop thread here on NBR.
Downloaded it, tried it... doesn't work. I don't get access to the voltages.
Is there anyway i could undervolt my DV5Z so i can squeeze some more battery life out of it I wanna know any software that can support my AMD processor for it
View 9 Replies View RelatedI undervolted my notebook to some values, the temperature did drop by quite some decent degrees, but i want to get it to the limit, what's the stable values you guys mostly got on your dv5? (im intested in those with similar configuration to mine - see sig)
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy MBP 13 is coming this Monday. I've learned over time how to undervolt CPU in Windows.
Now my question is, is there a guide to undervolting the CPU in OSX? I understand that CoolBook can be tuned to downclock the CPU, reducing its performance when the extra power is unnecessary.
Im a newcomer to both laptops and this forum. I found your ultimate 1410/1810 thread and I was redirected to these two threads:
Undervolting guide and 1810T undervolting guide
I managed to get up the profile for the RMClock but somehow the program showed me only one mutliplier, 6X. The CPU ran at 0.9V, but at 1,2GHz, while it should do 1,3GHz under load. I uninstalled the program and the CPU ran at 1,3GHz once again. I cant seem to find out where to get the second 6,5X multiplier
Following the excellent flipfire's undervolting guide and inspired by Silvr6's experience with undervolting his dv2, I decided to give it a try and...I was able to increase the battery lifetime from almost shameful 2h 25 minutes to 3h 30 minutes for mpeg 2 play, or even to 4h 20 minutes (light browsing and lots of reading). So, you get at least 25-30% more battery lifetime. This makes me like my dv2 a lot more!
Perhaps, it's the noted AMD's tendency to overvolt their CPUs, perhaps something else, but I was able to get the following 100% stable (in my case) voltages:
4.0x-0.6875 V
4.5x-0.7125 V
5.0x-0.7250 V
5.5x-0.7500 V
6.0x-0.7750 V
6.5x-0.8000 V
7.0x-0.8000 V (yes, it’s 0.8V again)
7.5x-0.8250 V
8.0x-8.5000 V
these voltages are stable for my particular CPU; yours might be slightly lower or higher. For example, Slvr6 was able to get a bit lower with 4x – 0.675 V. Read the undervolting guide!
But I hope that the table above will encourage you to try the undervolting (btw, unlike the overclocking it’s 100% safe), since the benefits for dv2 and AMD’s “neo” are so dramatic!...........
