Intel I7-2640m 2.8ghz. Running at 0.6 Ghz ive already tried a lot. used a program to stop throttling (which worked) but it expired, changed the system to run at max cpu speed at all times. tried to go into bios. tried running games it just wont go above .6! i feel like its running the speed of my flip phone of 10 years ago. i got it to run normally earlier today but then it stopped. i have all the other data if you need specific numbers. please help.

2 cores
4 logical processors
 
so that fixed it for now. i think. but now my disk is at %100 active. and its never done that before. ivve used throttle stopping programs and made sure it stayed cool.
 
honestly there is so much random crap that this thing does... my wifi goes from 0 to 500 then 0 over two seconds. ill come back to this if my cpu slows down again. which im sure it will. thank you though
