Vista AMD Drivers

I can't seem to find any CPU drivers for Vista on AMD's homepage and the XP version fails.


What's the deal?

I'm using a 3500+
 
Heh?

What do you need CPU drivers for? 😕

(The reason you're not finding any is likely because afaik, there are none.)
 
AMD Athlon? 64/FX Processor Driver for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 Version (x86 and x64 exe) 1.3.2.16 - Allows the system to automatically adjust the CPU speed, voltage and power combination that match the instantaneous user performance need. Download this Setup Installation program (EXE) to automatically update all the files necessary for installation. This package is recommended for users whom desire a graphical user interface for installation. This .EXE driver is a user friendly localized software installation of the driver designed for end-users. This driver supports AMD Athlon 64/FX processors on Windows XP SP2, Windows 2003 SP1 x84 and x64 Editions.
 
Yeah that's the Cool n Quiet "driver".

I suppose if you want those features, then of course install it.

Bear in mind it's by no means vital, & AFAIK, CnQ capability has to be enabled in the bios for it to function (should be on by default).
 
You don't need a driver to enable C&Q in Vista. You just need to make sure that your Power Management settings are set to "Balanced" and C&Q enabled in the BIOS as n7 mentioned.
