I have an old notebook that is having problems regarding random shutdown, caused by speedstep

It is a Mirax PR6050 (MSI PR600 rebranded for BR market) with GM965 chipset

The CPU is a core2duo T8300 (2400Mhz) and originally it came with a core2duo T45450 (1.66 Mhz) and 4GB (2x2) 667Mhz RAM

I thought it was problems related to cooling, so I changed the fan and replaced the thermal paste (silver artic) to see if was a problem with temps, but since even with low temps (35 TO 45) it still shutdowns a lot at random times....

And of course, the same thing was happening when I was using the older CPU (1.66Mhz) and I changed the CPU thinking it was a CPU issue but even with a even lower CPU (1.500Mhz) it happens the same thing....

Any ideas how to fix that since when I disable speed step the core speed is cut by half ? It is supposed to run at 2400Mhz but it is working only at 1200Mhz

Tks
