Regeneration

To disable that annoying automatic clock throttling (downclocking) on the latest Intel CPUs, you have to disable two features in your BIOS: C1E and Speedstep (EIST). However, if you are stuck with some cheap-ass motherboard and you cannot find these options in your BIOS, you can workaround it by using software called RMClock, but you will have to put RMClock on startup.

I left speedstep on so i can get XP to slow the processor down using the minimal power scheme should i wish to. My PC seems stable as a rock although it isnt a massive overclock (Q8300 @ 3GHz default Vcore)
