Want to throttle my Dell M1330

99% of the time I am using this laptop, I am using it very lightly (word, firefox, etc). I'd like to make it throttle itself. How do I go about doing this?
 
It doe throttle itself already. The chipset uses speedstep to alter the processor speed based on what you are doing. It does this by either dynamically altering the multiplier, the front side bus, or both.
 
Is there some kind of software I can use to monitor this? I'd like to prove to myself something is happening.
 
CPUz can do it. CPUz shows me in high performance mode running at 2,200Mhz x11multi at 200FSB quad pumped to 800FSB. Powersaver mode goes to 1,596Mhz x8.0multi at 199.5FSB quad pumped to 798mhz.
