I made a batch that generates INI file to lower voltage to -90mV (if previous INI not present or NEW parameter is used) and creates a Scheduled Task that will run ThrottleStop.EXE after few seconds of Wakeup/resume from sleep/hibernate, and at boot. ThrottleStop will only run for 20 seconds (windows will kill it, no need to use inner ExitTime INI setting). Some help provided within batch. Will ask for admin rights if needed.
Code:
@echo off
rem BD procHot default enabled: 0x00300020; disabled: 0x00300000
set procHot=0x00300020
rem mVolt -49.8 -60.5 -70.3 -80.1 -89.8 -100.6 -110.4 -120.1 -125
rem 0xF9B00000 0xF8400000 0xF7100000 0xF5C00000 0xF4800000 0xF3200000 0xF1E00000 0xF0A00000 0xF0000000
set voltage=0xF4800000
