Speedstep and XP

I've read the knowledge base and Intel's site and speedstep is suppose to be integrated into XP but where do you go to edit what speed you want to run the processor at. With Intel's own software you could have the processor run at full speed even on battery and that was done under power management settings.

I ask this because I just put in BurninTest on my computer to test it to make sure it ran from a floppy and it detected my system running at 733 instead of 1gig. 733 is the actual speed the computer runs at when on battery, I don't know why Intel says 700. So, does anyone know if it is possible to check the speedstep settings?

I had step speed on my PIII 600 and as soon as I installed XP pro that was gone, and I haven't found any integraded software yet. But thats a huge drop in speed 1ghz to 733- I go from 600 to 500.
