So I was looking around for tweaks on how to boost your PC's performance without having to spend a penny. Now I know what you're thinking : "Just get a better PC!" I'm getting a $800 USD PC next month. But still, can anyone help me? When I go to IRQ 8 it says "High precision event timer". But everyone else has that IRQ as the System CMOS. I looked through the IRQ list many many times and nothing. I looked in MSConfig32 and Device Manager and got the EXACT same result. I went on other computers in my house and they both had the System CMOS IRQ there, and it was set at IRQ 8. I'm on a 64 Bit OS and I'm on a laptop. One of the other computers I checked on was a laptop, so that's not the issue. And for some reason both IRQ 8 and 0 on my laptop are the same thing.
Here are my specs in case they're of any help :
CPU : Intel Core 2 Duo T6400 @ 2.00GHz
RAM : 4GB DDR2
GPU/Chipset : Intel GMA 4500MHD
OS : Windows 7 Professional
Laptop Model : HP Pavilion dv4-1227us. It came with Windows Vista Home Premium, but I upgraded to Windows 7 right away because of obvious reasons.
PLEASE HELP!
