Hi there, this is my first post so go easy on me! I did try to search first and didn't find anything helpful.
I currently have a Core 2 Extreme x6800 CPU in a Asus P5N32-SLI SE Deluxe board and Windows Vista (ok, after you've finished either laughing or growning, please continue reading) I performed a registry "fix" on my system to increase performance. The idea is that it allows core 2's (I think) to run properly under vista after being set up by an OEM originally. As a result speed step doesn't kick in, which means that the system is running at full speed, the downside being that now I've changed my machine to SLi It doesn't keep itself cool and the HSF is running at full speed constantly. If anyone here can either tell me how to undo it or just point me to the instructions on how to make it faster, I can disable it myself, just the Harrier jump jet on my desk is really getting on my nerves!
