AMD Cool'n'QuietT Drivers for Vista 32-bit
Completely wrong. Cool n' Quiet is intended to allow the system to monitor
and control processor frequency and voltage to reduce both heat and noise, and happens to save electricity in the process. Cool n' Quiet has nothing to do with Energy Star certification.

AMD Cool'n'Quietâ„¢ Drivers for Vista 32-bit
Cool'n'Quiet is a function of the CPU driver, which is
included in the Vista distributions, a BIOS setting enabling Cool'n'Quiet, and setting the the equivalent of "Minimal Power Management." I don't recall the exact labeling in Vista, but it was the second power configuration down in the panel. Cool'n'Quiet works in all my Vista installations and I use SpeedFan in Vista x86 to monitor it. I don't think there is a version of SpeedFan for Vista x64 yet because the programmer doesn't have a signed the driver. Dylan wrote: AMD Cool'n'Quietâ„¢ Drivers for Vista 32-bit does anyone know if these drivers are available? I'm trying to run AMD's dashboard software to monitor my cpu's frequency, temp, voltage, and fan speed. I need AMD's drivers to run this software, it won't work with the Microsoft drivers that come with vista. |

I think Cool'n'Quiet under Vista is motherboard and/or CPU dependent under Vista beta 2 and RC2. I have two Athlon 64 machines, one of them runs Cool'n'Quiet, the other one is always at 100% CPU . Machine #1: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ socket 939 Venice Asus A8V-E SE The CPU is mostly running at 1000 Mhz, revs up to 2000 Mhz when needed. Machine #2 AMD Athlon 64 3200+ socket 754 Newcastle Asus K8V SE Deluxe motherboard Cool 'n' Quiet worked under Windows XP SP2, the processor usually operates at 1/2 speed (1100 Mhz). Cool 'n' Quiet does not work not under Vista x64 RC2, always full 2200 Mhz |

AMD Cool'n'QuietT Drivers for Vista 32-bit
Guess you missed school that day....
but from your post, it appears you missed quite a large number of days. You have no idea what Energy Star certification is. You have no idea of what Cool n' Quiet is. You are just another idiot wagging his lips in the wind... Honu "DCR" wrote in message ... Jeez, you just defined the definition of Energy Star intentions, Numb_DoNUTS!
