I've been hunting the net for a throttle program- and didn't even need one! I followed your advice and used the powercfg command-line program and used powercfg /CHANGE profile-name /processor-throttle-ac DEGRADE and now my laptop (which has a dying fan) doesn't heat up like it used to. Thank you for posting this!! You lifted a bunch of stress from my life!!
Brilliant
