I posted this on page 8:
Picard, did you work out the Max VID readings?

Yes, What I actually did is to work on the Minimal VID first then the Maximal VID just worked. My Minimal is 0.700V and maximal is 0.972V. But I only tested each for 30 mins. Do I really have to torture-test each settings for HOURS?

Yes.

Another quick question, what will happed it i did not test the setting enough and continue to use these settings and an error occurs? Will this result in a BSOD?

got any sites that aren't in chinese?

Will this work with the new sonoma 533mhz fb with 2ghz. See im finally mad the pludge to buy the dell m70 and i heard the fans are quiet but then i want to try this to make them even quieter? will it be compatible?

Yes it will work with sonoma.

Look at how much you could push Dothan!

I FINALLY got it to work and I feel stupid as to why I couldn't get it to work so I'm not sharing what the problem was. But I do have two problems.

First:
Task Manager and I8KfanGUI both that the CPU load is 100%. Under processes it says that RM is taking most of it. Does RM just take the System Idle Process or is it doing something?

Second:
My Virtual Memory is getting low frequently (and it only started when I started using RM). I don't have any other applications open that would take up virtual memory I don't think. Does anyone have this problem and how do I solve it?

Thanks in advanced

First:
In RM under the Management tab, uncheck "run HLT..." and checkmark "Use alternate CPU load determination..." Then restart. That will fix the fangui reporting 100% CPU load.

Second:
Set your paging file to the recommended 768. (amount of memory x 1.5) since you have 512, paging file should be 768.

That was what it was on when I got the errors.

You have 512 of ram and you're still having low virtual memory?? What programs are you running?

Normally you will BSOD immediately, if you have the settings too aggressive. If the settings are low and you're not having immediate problems, you could BSOD at some point but this doesn't always happen - sometimes if any errors occur, it will result in corrupt data instead. That means the data will be useless.
I would definitely suggest testing at least 4 hours for any errors - overnight if possible.

I've been working on lowering my dell m70 and so far it doesn't look like it'll be lowered too much, or at least as much as some of the other people with 2.0ghz chips have gotten.

Although I gotta say my m70 is freakin' quiet. It is my first laptop so maybe it isn't but compared to my mom's older Pentium 4m laptop it is better cooled and much quieter out of the box.

While I am still testing I have a question for the enlightened. From watching i8fangui, at a reduced voltage my computer eventually drops to 45 C, at which point the fans go off and the cpu temp creeps back to ~62 C at which point the fans come on at low and it goes back to 45 C to repeat.

Would it be better to make it so that the fans stayed on after it hit 45C, or came on earlier? Is this turning on and off of the fans worse than having them always running?

Tellerve

When I do torture test, I just leave my fans always on and my CPU stays at 39.

BlownFuse: I have torture tested my Maximal (0.972V) for 2 hours and no errors using the 1st option in torture test. Will it not impose damage to the CPU if I ran a torture test for 4 hours? I mean, Im still quite septik. Overnight? Are you serious?
