My wife has a Toshiba Laptop that has the Intel Pentium 4 Mobile 538 3.2Ghz... when I looked at it with CPUz it shows it as 18XX.X so 1.8Ghz... whats up with that? LoL
 
probably speedstep lowering the cpu speed at idle. Bust out super-pi or something and look at cpu-z while the system is under full load.
 
why would you want to? it makes the laptop run cooler, quieter, and get MUCH better battery life. it doesn't affect performance at all...it only throttles down when it's idle. anyway, if for some wacko reason you want to disable it you can usually do it through the bios and/or through the laptop's power management software. But there's no reason to disable it.
 
change power mode to "always on"

Itll make your laptop run hotter and drain battery life, but if thats what you want, thats how you do it.
 
oh you guys are right... I am not doing to disable it forever... I just wanted to see it say 3.2 LoL
