I live in a place with temps around 19 degress, i dont have a termometer but the back of the netbook get slighly warm, the fan works the at the same speed in both modes.
msi wind
really? it will depend on how many (and type) of program are running at startup
msi wind
Nice video man What is the name of the first song that you are playong and by who.
msi wind
dude! that boots xp faster than my custom 3.3 ghz computer!
msi wind
What temps are you getting load and idle, and is the CPU fan still at stock speeds, or is that speedup?
msi wind
wow. that boots xp faster than my 2.66ghz hp zd7000

You have to upgrade the BIOS to ver 1.09 and inside it enable overclock to 24%, at booting when showing the MSI logo press FN+F10 and the power button will light orange, that means its is overclock mode (1.98GHz)
msi wind
what did you use to overclock it?
msi wind
you have to have it plugged up to a wall to have the overclocking mode on
msi wind
yes it does, and very well. i tested it too and it’s nice, all the effects works like a normal computer, aero effects too.
msi wind
How much more juice does it use up when overclocked?
msi wind
careful before you buy the 120 i was gonna get it to but i found out the ram is not upgradable and it has no “overdrive” to easy overclock (not yet anyways) it also has a diffrent network card so the wifi doesent work on leopard yet.
msi wind
It came with 1GB of RAM, i upgraded to 2GB later.
I tested running Windows 7 the beta version and it worked although the animations i needed to disable to prevent lag

Nice vid
Im thinking of picking up an msi wind 120, is your 100. Anyway did you up grade the memory to 2gb or did it come like that.
How does it run ?
I need somthing small for word and internet use. This looks idea. Do you think windows 7 will run ok on the msi when its out.
msi wind
i have no idea, i have a msi wind, not a hp mini
msi wind
Do you think it would be alright to overclock my HP mini via third party software?
msi wind
not at all, the only section that gets somewhat hot is the area near the hard disk
msi wind
Does it run really hot at 1.98GHZ?
msi wind
Turbo mode doest not work on battery
msi wind
But what happens if i boot off the battery, and want to put it into power saving mode? can i change the overclock whilst in windows, say from under clocking to overclocking?
msi wind
no way you can void your warranty if you overclock the msi, its a main feature of this netbook, the overclocking is enabled everytime when booting
msi wind
Can you overclock whilst in windows? or only when booting!
Also…
Does it void warrenty if overclocked?
msi wind
nice vid!:D
