Hi All, This was already requested before but nobody responded so I'm trying again. If anyone has windows XP installed on an MBP C2D can you try underclocking your ati x1600 card using ati tools or ati tray tools:
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/feedback/Mac_ATI_X1600_overclocking.html This link discusses over-clocking your card in windows but my hope is that you can also underclock it and that it will survive a reboot (maybe even stay as a permanent setting). If this works I would like to know how much power is consumed in Linux after the card has been under-clocked. I don't think there should be any danger in underclocking your card so I'm not asking anyone to risk their machine. I would do this myself but I don't have the partitions around to install Win XP and it seems extremely hard to install it on an external drive (I've been looking into this) or and for some reason I can't seem to non-destructively repartition my drive. Before destructively repartitioning I would like to know if this is going to be of some use. thanks, Sheer ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
