Re: T61 cpu upgrade

I noticed lately that I can hear the same sound even with the stock T7300 cpu, when on battery. After further 'googling' I learnt its a common issue, at least for T61s. So its not related to a cpu. The solution is to disable "CPU power management" from BIOS. Do you guys know of any other proper work...
