My laptop is a XP-M 2600+.
Even when folding the highest speed it will run is somewhere in the 700's Mhz It should be 2.0Ghz.
Does anyone know how to disable the PowerNow options without having to format windows?

Thanks I got a CPU monitor to see it's opinion rather than windows and it is running at the correct 2.0Ghz
So then Windows is f__king with me :frusty:

AFAIK, Windows gets the speed measurement when it starts up.

So at that point it could easily only have been running at 700MHz or less.
