Sorry to bug you again. Is this a fresh install of Win7 without any of Gigabyte's craplets or other ODM drivers? Just using Intel and ATI/NV drivers?
Have to reiterate, Turbo mode must be off as it uses c-states.
Yes i bought a new Hard drive and installed a new copy of windows 7, and i did disable all c states, but not that im remembering i have my cpu over clocked to about 3.6Ghz and I can remember Under M.I.T in the bios i set the Robust Graphics Booster at "Turbo" is that what your talking about?
Because where i disabled all that C state stuff was in the Advance BIOS Features i did this.
Limit CPUID Max to 3 ................. [disable]
No-Execute memory Protect ........[disable]
CPU Enhance Halt (CIE) ..............[disable]
C2/C2E State Support ................[disable]
C4/C4E State Support ................[disable]
CPU Thermal Monitor...................[disable]
CPU EIST Function......................[disable]
Virtualization Technology ............ [disable]
Btw when I had cubase 5 in windows 7 i remember the CPU usage in cubse getting fuller much faster why would that be? In XP i would loud up like 5 instances of amplitube and compared to win 7 the CPU usage gets fuller much faster
