That's an pretty interesting find. I really want to know what is going on behind the scenes in yellow and red mode.
Have you ever tried CrystalCPU to disable the fix? If so how did it behave in terms of power consumption.
Looking at the linux kernel fix, the software workaround seems to be no such big thing, I wonder if MS will release an hotfix for this issue, I guess never.
