This did it! Great utility!

Thanks a lot for your quick and clear replies, I'll get right to them. Cheers, and all best! (sve najbolje )

Hello, I have a XP Professional 32-bit installed on a HP 6820s, and keeping in mind that it's a pretty hot-running laptop I'd like to find a utility (preferably freeware) which can, in short, give me few customizable profiles, for very low cpu (and all other components) usage, a medium one, and a maximum one. Something like Vista has, really missing it in XP. Thanks in advance! (p.s. already tried, but not satisfied: SpeedSwitch XP)

On the other hand, I switched the BIOS to ATA mode, installed and activated my windows copy, installed all the basic drivers needed, and afterwards switched back to SATA Native mode - ON. Worked!
