Thanks for this update to CPUID. It is really appreciated!

Although I am not the person that wrote you about mutiplier / CPU voltage changing under EIST, I've been looking for a way to do this in DOS. It would save on heat dissipation and power usage if we could, for example lower CPU voltage and multiplier to minimum values on those systems where EIST is enabled in BIOS. Much like the Win32 program CrystalCPUID. Would you look into it more, if possible? I also think it's a CPU core problem, but then I believe there are ways to access each CPU core under DOS. How do programs like HWINFO detect each core? Maybe change CPU core 0 only on multicore CPUs?
