cool n quiet

[lockmac]

My cool n quiet refuses to work. I have an A8v motherboard, and i am positive that the settings are correct. I have enabled it in the BIOS, i have aneabled ACPI 2.0 support. I have set it to Minimal Power Setting in the Control Panel, but when I monitor the speed it doesnt change, even if i leave the computer their for hours. Someone please help

Are you OCing your PC - IIRC Cool n Quiet is turned off in this case.

No i am not overclocking my system. What do you mean by IIRC??

IIRC = If I Recall Correctly

Make sure it is enabled in the bios....should be by the cpu stuff...

yep everything is enabled. I have updated the bios numerous times and it still wont work. I have made sure that the ACPI 2.0 is set to yes, the cool n quiet is enabled, the 'minimal power setting' is enabled in control panel. Everything is correct but i wont work

Up to date motherboard drivers and winxp updates??? I dont know I am reaching for straws but it could be sometihng in the window environment...

What are your power options under control panel set as???

Do you have the AMD Athlon 64 Processor driver installed? It needs that too.
