Intel Speedstep Problem

I have a Lenovo 3000 K1 desktop with the Q6600 chip.
This desktop has a dial that can be turned to change the core clocks and other voltages up or down.

My core clock is supposed to be at 2.4 GHz, but its stuck at 1.6 GHz. The multiplier should be at 9.0x, but its at 6.0x. I have tried change it multiple times, but no luck, it keeps switching back.

I used two or three different softwares to check this. CPUZ-ID shows that each core is at 1.6GHz.

How do I fix this?

It's supposed to do that...you have to stress the CPU before the multiplier will jump.

So if I play Crysis on all high settings the clock will jump to 2.4 on its own?

Yes, when you have CPU-z open try opening a bunch of programs or run prime95...you'll see it change its clock reading.
