E450 apu, underperforming.

There are two different settings in power options: "Plugged In" and "On Battery." Check AMD Fusion control center if you've got it. Also check windows advanced power options, "show settings that are not currently visible." I guarantee you it's there somewhere under "Plugged In." "Maximum CPU State: 50%" Or "Max CPU Clock: 800MHz"

I believe I don't have an Amd fusion control center, allthough I do have the standard catylyst control center. I have tried to find the setting which acts up with no luck. Here's a picture of both the Catalyst controll center and the power options.

You are unable to drag the slider from the left side to the right in CCC?

Um, disable C6 in the BIOS? Change the title of the thread?

I am happy to report that flashing the bios worked! It can now increase its the clock to 1600 mhz whenever it needs to

Seems like the only browser that really likes the UVD would be internet explorer, which is a slight bummer, since..well its internet explorer. I will try updating flash on waterfox and report back

Adobe/AMD seem to break UVD from version to version.
I'm on linux and the last version they make/will support is 11.2, which doesn't support UVD but it's supposed to ... on Windows it should work with some versions.

Glad you got it solved! Sounds like it was just a BIOS bug after all.
