#146546 - Who slows down the CPU?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Well, after figuring out that the machine was slowing itself down to keep from frying its own CPU, I got to wondering what actually makes that happen. Is it Windows, or the BIOS, or hardware on the motherboard, or the CPU itself?

The short answer is, "Yes." The long answer is here.
