I tried installing a driver update dated July 2010, and although it says 'installed successfully' the listing still shows the outdated driver and problem. My laptop is a: Dell XPS15 (L501X)
In the details it says: PCI bus 0, device 31, function 6
I downloaded the Turbo boost monitor, and it started to go through an uninstall procedure, so I already have it installed. This is not the answer to the problem unfortunately
Unfortunately looking at a current list of laptops I don't own won't fix the problem with my laptop. Do you know when Dell will support the XPS501X ? It was 2 years ago, and currently is a quality spec laptop i7 quad core laptop with 2gb of dedicated graphics, so I'm hoping Windows 8 support will be coming soon?

I didn't clarify in my original post that I'm running Windows 8 now
