Is there a way to make this throttlestop startup when windows starts?
I already put it on the startup folder but its not starting on its own...
 
Its a BIOS setting for sure. If you set to default and still this happens then we got a problem also disable C1E and SpeedStep ........... while we do this.
 
Using the Task Scheduler is the best way to start ThrottleStop with Windows. Here's a guide if anyone else needs to do this.

If all you need to do with ThrottleStop is take care of BD PROCHOT, it also has a couple of other features you might be interested in.

ExitTime=5

Add the above INI option to the ThrottleStop.ini configuration file and ThrottleStop will automatically exit 5 seconds after it starts. This will give ThrottleStop lots of time to disable BD PROCHOT and then it will quietly exit. You can combine this with the Start Minimized option so you will barely notice this problem.

I am not sure if you use hibernate or stand by modes. You might need to run ThrottleStop again after you use either of these. It depends on what the bios does. It might reset the BD PROCHOT register that ThrottleStop manipulates or it might leave it as is after a stand by or hibernate.

This might be because something is shorting out on your motherboard but it's probably just a bad sensor. If there are some heatsinks on your motherboard voltage regulators, make sure they are snug.

You usually need a modded bios before you see an option to disable BD PROCHOT in the bios. Most bios versions don't give you access to this adjustment.

OMG I found the problem. It turms out there is a small switch in the board for Slow Mode and it was on the ON position. I turned it off and now no need for Throttlestop anymore.
Holly hell i spent so much time on this...
Im testing Prime95 Small FFS stable at 4.5Ghz at vcore 1.29v, LLC at High (50%) and temps are 75C under prime and 29C at idle with watercooling.
Pictures coming soon 🙂
EDIT: Damn theres no option to add pics... too bad :/

Such a weird problem, AnotherGuy. I'm glad you found your problem. Still pretty cool how ThrottleStop was able to override the switch!
