On this panel, find the line CPU. Below this line, select External frequency. Below is the figure responsible for the dispersal of the CPU. Opposite this figure, there are two buttons – "+ and "-". Use the button "-" to lower the figure by a few points. Save the settings by clicking on Apply. The computer restarts and the CPU speed will be reduced.

If you use a laptop with Windows 7 operating system to reduce CPU frequency you can use the system capabilities. Click "start" - "control Panel". Select the component "Food", and "energy Saving". Now idle CPU speed will be reduced. This method can also be used on home PCs. Just in comparison with laptops, the result will not be as noticeable.
