    I just got a compaq armada 1750 laptop ( 6300/T/4000/D/M/1 ) the cpu throttles when im running on batts thats all good but it throttles the same way when running on AC... I DLed the compaq power managment software but i see nothing in it about CPU throttling.......Any one know how to stop this thing from throttling on AC ????

    When nothing is running and im at the desktop it runs at 17 mhz ! when im playing games it runs at full 300 ( well 299.33 [​IMG] ) It just makes things feel sluggish when its throttling...what whould be the speedstep = for a p2 ?? I plan on putting a P3 650 in it soon ( it has a 440bx chipset and iv read that its an EZ swap )........
