Toshiba a215-s7472 clean win7 32 bit install - cpu stuck @ 800Mhz
i have made several clean installs of windows 7 32 bit onto my a215-s7472 but the processor gives back a speed of 800Mhz, i installed the drivers as toshiba recommends (tsi4win7.exe) after that ... flash cards dont work (dont care) but speed gets stuck @ 800mhz....
bios 2.30 according to toshiba is the latest
i did a workaround, selected amdppm.sys instead of amk8.sys in device manager / processor... speed went up to 2.19 ghz but stays there, no more Cool n Quiet
--------------------------------------------------------------------
kept working on the issue
i downgraded the bios to 2.00 (originally had 2.30) installed the preferred windows 7 driver (update driver) still gets stuck @ 800 mhz
im going to try with windows 7 64 bit ultimate, to see if it works (right now i have 32bit ultimate)
if anybody has an idea plz post it here :/
(downgraded with CD bios boot upgrade)
--------------------------------
kept on working
win7 64 ultimate had the same issue..... went back to bios 2.30 and 32bit ...
----------------------------------------------------
current config:
Toshiba a215-s7472 bios 2.30
AMD Turion 64x2 TL-64 with amdppm.sys drivers temp @ load ~ 64Celcius
amdk8.sys from widnows 7 gets stuck @ 800mhz,
amdk8.sys from windows xp gets stuck @2.2Ghz and temp rises 20+celcius
i already cleaned/changed thermal paste on the cpu, cleaned vents ....
anybody knows a good workaround to get cool n quiet working with the full throttling
(800mhz to 2.2 ghz ) plz let me know
