    Vista, xp, Windows 7? Vista and Windows 7 have adjustable power settings. You might find that the current power plan your on has been custom set to reduce the cpu limit to a % of max usage. This is available in the advanced power settings of your plan.


    Btw, default settings work the other way around. Somebody deliberately changed it on you.

    You might have messed up the power settings, did you change the settings to operate as lowest settings when the power supply is plugged in? Check that!

    Yeah it sounds like you did everything backwards when you set up your power scheme.
