Hi friends,
I have a problem i have VAIO VGN-F seies notebook which was performing slow
on main power source, working fine on battery i did some tweaks on CPU
speeds reading a lot of tutorials , i do not know whether this or somthing
else has now started making mine notebook  got heated up , i mean it is
heatin up from base.
I also have windows on the same system (dual boot), it was also heating up ,
i then installed NHC (Notebook Hardware Control ) on windows XP, it reduced
the CPU speed and which probably increases load on the system, this removed
the heating problem of CPU.

I have a question that is there a similar s/w availble on linux Centos
4.xor i need to reinstall the OS or can it be a hardware problem the
CPU
heating up.
Has someone experienced the same problem ,
NHC says the earlier temp of my CPU was above 90 degree C now it is 60
degree C.

Thanks,
Early answers expected,
Regards,
Abhishek jain
