I'm using a combination of 0511 and SetFSB. Maybe I should try yours instead.

[.:Cyb3rGlitch:.]

How do I set the Custom FSB? Mine is greyed out and says 165Mhz with a tick next to it. My Eee is running at 110Mhz FSB via SetFSB.

[dci]

.:Cyb3rGlitch:.
I didn't try it with 0511, only with 0401, 8804 and 0201 . However worst that can happen -- it won't work.
You can edit ini to add your freqs, something like this:
Freqs = 70,0,Stock; 80,0; 85,1,Medium; 95,1; 100,1,Full; 110,1,Even higher

[.:Cyb3rGlitch:.]

Ahh, cool. I'll give it a try. :)

[.:Cyb3rGlitch:.]

Err, there is a major bug with the 0511 BIOS and this software. :S

I'll see if I can fix it.

[dci]

What kind of bug?
SetFSB works on 0511 with same settings? eeeclock modifies pll another way, but data should be the same.

Maybe it's time for me to flash 0511.)

[.:Cyb3rGlitch:.]

Ok, it seems that there is a different FSB ratio (of 1 : 1.5).

e.g.

A 110MHz FSB (CPUz) = 165MHz FSB on your program
A FSB 46.7MHz (CPUz) = 70MHz FSB on your program etc.

Wow, thats strange, but not critical, i think.
Anyway, can you make ACPI DSDT dump for me?

Edited by dci, 09 January 2008 - 12:42 AM.

[.:Cyb3rGlitch:.]

Tell me how to do it and I'll gladly do it. :)

[dci]

download this file:

unpack, run(on eee) "iasl.exe -d", mail resulting dsdt_****.dsl at dci@4pda.ru.
thanks.)

dci,
It seems to work very nicely.
Can I enter a lower value in the ini file to underclock to around 500MHz without worrying about causing problems?

Thanks for this neat app,
Doug

[dci]

dougeeebear
Well, you can try.:)
I can get stable 55MHz FSB with an intermediate step at 60, so you may be able too.
Try adding something like "55,0,Low energy;60,0;" to freqs param in ini.

[dougeeebear]

dci,
Yes, that takes me down to exactly 500MHz as reported by MobileMeter which is exactly what I wanted. I can also notice the difference in speed.
If I added eeeclock to my startup folder and set "SuspFreq = 55,0" would it start at that frequency every time I restarted the computer?
I'm going to keep track of the temperature and see if I will be able to safely disable the fan.

Thanks,
Doug

I just tried it but it just crashes every time I set it to one of the other speeds.

[dci]

dougeeebear
No, first of all, re-download eeeclock from the link in the first post, there was a bug and a frequency wasn't set at startup.
Then, add the frequency to the startup shortcut as an argument, something like this:
"C:\Program Files\eeeclock\eeeclock.exe" 55 0

SuspFreq is what to set before suspending to be able to resume later.

Can you dump&send me DSDT as described above?

[.:Cyb3rGlitch:.]

Is there a way to overclock in steps like SetFSB?

[dci]

.:Cyb3rGlitch:.
That's the only way.
From the eeeclock.ini:
;
; Note that changing the frequency includes a step-by-step transfer through all intermediate
; values, i.e. if you change the frequency from 70 to 100 MHz and settings contain also 80
; and 95MHz, first the frequency will be changed to 80, then to 95 and only then to 100MHz.
; This applies to ALL frequency changes, even to those done in noui mode.
;
So all intermediate values should be added manually. If the value isn't named -- it doesn't appear in the menu, but can still be used in the described process.

Crashed XP the first time I tried it at 60Mhz FSB and now it looks like I might have to reinstall. (Telling me that I have corrupt files in the system menu and I need to do a repair. Hope it works.)
