Question Modify CPU Speed?
Is there a simple and *free* way to modify the CPU setting manually and/or change the CPU speed options under Settings?

The Dell defaults are either all (>520) or nothing (208). I'd like something in the middle (300-400 MHz) that doesn't totally cripple the machine (208) or suck the battery down (>520). I don't like "Auto" because it seems to keep the speed at max anytime a program is running.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Michael

Maybe on a 520 MHz model, but mine is a 624 MHz.

On my x50v, the settings are High Performance (624), Normal (520) and Power Saving (208). (And, of course, Auto.)

Same for X51v. I want something between 520 and 208.

Thanks for the link. I've looked at XCPUScal and think it's too bloated and expensive ($20) for what I need - just a simple way to get to ~350-400 MHz.
