I can deal without having speedstep if it means I get my missing 2.2GHz. I wonder at the timing, though. I seem to recall seeing this under FC5, too, but never did anything about it. How long has this been a problem for me? I've been running Core on this laptop since FC1. Surely I haven't been crippled this long? (Or am I just misunderstanding, that it's actually running at 2.8Ghz, but reporting 692Mhz?)
