How to enable Cool 'n' Quiet in Vista
Well, while my Athlon 1gz used to run at 38-42, the lower the temp the less stress on the device, if it can run at 32c thats how I want it. The issue here is that Microsoft does not trust third party drivers, you will notice that nearly all your devices are running on Microsoft drivers now. That said my Dvico Fusion TV card does have its own drivers written for vista which work, so the best shot is to take it up with technical support at your motherboard company.

How to enable Cool 'n' Quiet in Vista
This is the reply I got from Asus support:
Dear Friend : Thank you for contacting ASUS Customer Service. My name is ZYC, and I would be assisting you today. Sir, the Vista itself have built in AMD K8 CPU driver, you don't need install it manually. In fact there is no AMD K8 CPU driver for Vista can be downloaded at all. I have tested with a socket 939 cpu, when power management was set to the 1st option or 2nd option, cpu will work at CNQ mode. But on the 3rd option ( high performance), CPU will work at full speed.
