I think I would try updating your usb stick's kernel with 8-stable and rebuild it. I'm wondering if someone who made the stick image turned off SMP to make i fit on small sticks (above is 7.2-stable, not the 8 on a stick). I see HTT in your CPUs features, but I wonder what that's based on. What if the BIOS supports hyperthreading but the cpu doesn't? (there were p4 processors sold before hyperthreading came out, I know, I bought one. 8o) You might try finding a cpu diagnostic tool that describes the cpu in great detail, like from download.com, etc. You might also go to Intel's site and lookup the id 0xf29 and see if Intel says it actually supports hyperthreading. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Hello have you looked to your /etc/rc.conf set to the following by adding: powerd_enable=YES power_flag'-i 85 -r 60 -p 100 or Now you can also modify this file: /etc/sysctl.conf or /boot/loader.conf (CPU Frequency) debug.cpufreq.lowest=600 To test live in your terminal you can set it with this command: sysctl debug.cpufreq.lowest=600 Now you can set it to 1200 but I would recommend 100 at a time for testing.
