Hello have you looked to your /etc/rc.conf

set to the following by adding:

powerd_enable=3D"YES"

power_flag'-i 85 -r 60 -p 100"

or

Now you can also modify this file: /etc/sysctl.conf or /boot/loader.conf
(CPU Frequency)

debug.cpufreq.lowest=3D600

To test live in your terminal you can set it with this command:

sysctl debug.cpufreq.lowest=3D600

Now you can set it to 1200 but I would recommend 100 at a time for =
testing.






Thank You

Yes, it is there[1] now. :-)

It has one Pentium 4 cpu.
Hyperthreading was disabled in bios, it is enabled now:
