RMClock on Vista x64

Hey guys, just thought I'd give a heads up. I haven't tried this yet, but this guy has RMClock up and running in Vista x64:

Cheers

P.S. I'll get back once I try it out.

UPDATE: This is no longer needed, please refer to CoolGuy's undervolting guide for a thorough how-to. If you are looking for an x64 driver, browse to the bottom of his first post.

Thanks!
Ciao

 

Up and running.

Here's what I did (can't really take a ton of credit for this one, see link in OP):
- Disable (and keep disabled) UAC
- Download RMClock, & create a folder in your Program Files (x86) folder called "RMClock"
- Unzip contents of RMClock RAR to that folder (or install it there if you d/l the .exe file
- Download Atsiv here.
- Place this file in the RMClock folder and rename it to atsiv.exe (from ats1v.exe)
- Open Notepad and place these contents in the document:

Code:

'Initialise vars
FstCmd = """c:\program files (x86)\RMClock\Atsiv.exe"" -u ""c:\program files (x86)\RMClock\RTCore64.sys"""
ScndCMD = """c:\program files (x86)\RMClock\Atsiv.exe"" -f ""c:\program files (x86)\RMClock\RTCore64.sys"""
Program = """c:\program files (x86)\RMClock\RMClock.exe"""

'Initialise objects
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

Return = WshShell.Run(FstCmd, 1, true)
Return = WshShell.Run(ScndCMD, 1, true)
Return = WshShell.Run(Program, 1, true)

- Save as filename.vbs
- Place this .vbs file, or a link to it in your startup folder

Voila!

I've left this here in case you really want/need it.

Please see my updated OP for link to x64 driver...no need for atsiv any longer.

Thanks coolguy!

 

Works for me too, for a few weeks now.
I wanted to write an howto, but you were faster.

If you want it to load automatically on evvery bootup with UAC turned on, create a new task in scheduled tasks, running your *.vbs file with full administrator rights.
But be careful: I had to set it to load it on login , but wait for 1 minute bevore loading, because RMClock seems to need Exprorer to be loaded to work correctly. Now with SP1, Vista loads faster, so that I could reduce waiting time to 30 seconds.

THE BIG PROBLEM is that this doesn't work if you have several User accounts and change between them, because then RMClock would be loaded on every login again, but if you try to start it again when it's already running, Windows will crash with a Bluescreen.

Maybe someone knows a way to unload it on logoff, then it would work...

 

I followed this guide and got RMClock to start up in 64-bit. However, each time it starts up I get a warning that I do not have a signed driver. The program still functions (though I did get a BSOD from a minimal undervolt) somewhat, but I would like this to go away. Any ideas?

 

You must have enabled it to run on startup using the standard launcher.

Type in Msconfig on your run bar and see if its running trying to run aswell through windows startup

 

bump cuz i'ma do this tomorrow.

 

No point on doing this anymore. Theres already signed drivers for Vista 64

 

Hey Flip,

The website says you still need "workarounds". I had to forego using RMClock in Win 7 b/c atsiv wasn't doing the job, even with UAC turned off completely.

Would you mind informing us where to get the signed driver?

UPDATE: Forgive my laziness, anyone wanting the driver, go to flip's undervolting guide.

Proceed to the bottom of the OP and he has the link there.

Thanks flip.

 

so what does this do?

 

Where do you get it with signed drivers? I tried to install it yesterday but vista 64 wouldn't let me due to unsigned drivers.

 

It lowers the voltage of electricity that passes through your CPU, thus keeping the temperature down, and hopefully elongating the life of your processor.

You need to read up a few posts and you will find your answer.

 

i got it all set up lowered around 13c but prob is i can get it to work on startup?? this is the error i get

line: 1
Char: 1
Error: type mismatch: 'Intialise'
Code: 800a00d
source: Microsoft VBScript runtime error

 

BMWNICK, you no longer need to use atsiv, we have a signed driver...I will edit OP.

Look at my post on 4/7

 

i have the driver added i erased the ATSIV file and still get the same message i really want to figure out how to run at startup because this undervolting really works my hp laptop def is alot cooler while its running

 

it wont let me post a pic of the error otherwise i would

EDIT: this is what i did and now it works except for the performance on demand setting which is set to no management everytime it starts up?

i did everything u guys said but then i also clicked start on startup via reg key in the settings and now the error is gone....now if anyone can help to make it start with performance on demand that would be great

 

I'm not sure how to help you on that one bmw, I've not use RMCLOCK extensively. I would go to coolguy's thread and post your problem there, he'd likely be able to answer your questions.

Good luck!

 

man still no luck but man do i love the lower temps this is really cool for anyone who questions this method it does work

 

This method is outdated. Just download this www.flipfire.net/download/rtcore64.zip and then extract it to your RMclock folder and overwrite the old driver ,and you are ready to go!!!

 

ok starts on start up fine but doesnt keep my profile listed as performance on demand it starts up no management

 

that being said ive got it down to 56 degrees C which is just awesome started in the high 80's

 

He has stopped using the old method. He already read through CoolGuy's thread and followed teh instructions, he's just having problems with it using the correct profile at startup.

 

exactly.... does anyone else have this issue or does anyone know how to fix it?

 

Do you guys have oem power management utilities installed with RMClock, too? Or just RMclock alone?

I had RMclock running on Vista x86 and it was great. I had Lenovo power management drivers installed, but not the actual power manager utility at the time.

Have since upgraded to Vista x64 and want to try RMclock again. Has anyone mixed both the Power Manager software & RMclock? If so, any conflicts? Thank you!

 

I haven't tried any other power management solutions other than Vista's/Win 7's.

But RMClock is working great in Win7 x64 btw.

 

I'm getting access denied (in windows 7 64 bit) when i try to extract the RTCore64.sys file. Regardless of where I try to extract it to. My T4300 Inspiron 1545 runs pretty cool, but trying to get better battery life.
