    I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to all this.

    I have an Intel Core 2 Duo E8435 cpu (it's very similar to the X9100)

    I would really appreciate if someone could tell me step by step what settings to use to absolutely minimize heat and maximize battery life using Throttlestop except when I am in Performance mode (at which point I want to maximize performance)

    I already added Throttlestop to the Task Manager so that it starts with Windows.

    Thank you in advance.
