A link to signed version of RTCore64.sys is near the end of the first post in the Undervolting Guide.

Also, you can try this trick to see what is happening:

Quote:
Hold down (fn+shift) then type (while still holding down fn+shift) 1,5,3,2,4 - This will enable the special mode.

After that fn+R will bring you to a text based screen (again, even in Windows) where you can get to all the temps, fan speeds, etc, and even set the throttling percentages.

You can then use fn+R anytime to get into this page until reboot, at which time you need to turn it on again.

FYI, once you manually mess with them, the fans will not change speed until you reboot.
Try the same thing, but instead Fn+R, do Fn+T ( if you have music playing, stop it before, as it play like if your computer froze, until you get out of the menu by hitting Esc)
Note that one of the status lights flashes while you are in this mode, and the only exit is via a reboot.
