| 1272027 | 2012-05-13 09:00:00 | Umm does this support speedstep?? Look in the BIOS. If its enabled, disable it | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1272028 | 2012-05-14 06:00:00 | You did a clean install right? Not install Windows over itself? What BIOS is on it now??Yes clean installed both times (incl format from Windows setup). Not sure what BIOS is there - probably the original (I've had bad experience updating BIOS in the past so I steer clear of updating it). I don't think I've seen Speedstep in there before, but I'll take a look next time. Mike. |

It's not a software problem. Cheers, Mike. |
