semiconeng, Ok, you just totally upset John Fowler. I think he is going on a new crusade to stop Intel and Dell from deceiving the customer about the MHz of their computer. Hiding it and only allowing them to find out the real story if they follow the obscure instructions that you described: Could be, I don't have a Dell Laptop. I was simply noting that on my IBM Thinkpad T20, it also does not specifically say "SpeedStep Adjustment" anywhere "In The Manual". However, the Power Management adjustments allow you to adjust the Processor Speed to different levels "To Save Power", or get "Maximum Performance" while on batteries. Obviously Petz is "Adament" that if it doesn't specifically say "SpeedStep Adjustment", "In The Manual", than it doesn't exist. Fine With Me...... Semi
