Namely, I am missing the option to change Minimum/Maximum Processor State.
The option is available in Command Center / AlienFusion but I refuse to use this piece of crap so it's disabled in Services and Msconfig. But even if I do change the option (From min 5% on battery to 100%) in AlienFusion, the changes aren't saved.
I'd rather be able to make this change in Window's own power setting options but all I see under "Processor Power Management" is "System Cooling policy".
Could Command Center have changed my Registry during installation to remove this option? Do I need re-do another fresh install? Honestly, I hate CC as it's a power hog and all I use of it is AlienFX. Is there an AlienFX stand alone software I could use?
BTW, I got a M11X R1 if it's any help.

Well, I did a clean install and without installing CC, I am still not able to see these options. I can easily see them in my Asus G73JH, but not in my M11X. Could they have been disabled on a hardware level?
Anyways, I then installed CC, changed the options I needed to within CC and then disabled it through Services. It seems to have kept the settings. I hope... I can only confirm through CC. -
Nope - something else mucked up your registry. I have CC installed on both my 11x and 17x with no components disabled (except AlienSense via the GUI - not the service). No issues with memory here.

Thanks BatBoy for the input. However, it's not a specific plan that is missing. They are all there. What I missing is specific options to tweak within those power plan.
