Well, it seems real that Turion-based machines can offer that many CPU frequency levels. Another dualcore Turion machine offers these: dev.cpu.0.freq_levels: 1990/100000 1791/81822 1592/65808 1393/57582 1194/49356 995/41130 796/22152 696/19383 597/16614 497/13845 398/11076 298/8307 199/5538 99/2769 Not quite that many as the machine above, but still an impressive list. It seems I managed it to finally fix the machine above, thanks to anyone for suggestions. I updated the BIOS to the latest version (1.07) where the reports I found in the Internet suggested that Windows 7 failed to set the CPU frequency away from the default 800 MHz one with any prior version. This by itself didn't really solve the issue at hand, so I continued to upgrade the machine's kernel from FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE to RELENG_8. Also, I modularized the kernel, and recompiled the cpufreq module with *just* the powernow driver in it. I cannot tell for sure which of the three things did fix it, but I can now run it with "powerd -a hadp -b adp", and it ran for 12 h that way (including the nightly cron jobs). -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
