Well keep in mind it's always best to install the chipset/Intel management engine from the manufacturer..

Well then minus the advise about the Toshiba utility that was actually the bios I would suggest that you actually perform the advice given in this thread for the issue you are having, other wise the thread is dead here.
and the 511Cels on the GPU...WTH is that shit?
Recap
dont use throttlestop until we figure out the issue.
1 reset your bios now that you have been playing in there..DID work? if no go to 2
2 Windows power options to Max Permanence (for testing reasons) Did it work? If no go to 3
3 Install the Chipset from Toshiba for your laptop and reboot and test again. Did it work if not please report back so we can dev deaper.

You're right we can't do it for him and we can't hold his hand either for this he's got to do it himself if he doesn't do it it's his own fault it might as well just throw the laptop out.
If it ain't those things most likely his motherboard is toast or his CPU is.
And at that point he might as well get a laptop that is robust in Cooling and has a higher means of configuration and probably should take it to someone that would be able to show him how to tweak it the correct way since we are on the other side of a monitor.

Also while i have not experienced this nor seen it my self, I have read that undervolting a chip a little too much can sometimes stop the CPU from some upper turbo boost clocks. Worth a mention though, even though it should be able to maintain its base clock.

The only times i've seen this issue on a laptop is:
1. overheating/thermal throttle
2. power saving mode is enabled in windows (run high performance mode)
3. Charger/battery not originals, or not working correctly, forcing to run power saver
maybe yours isnt working because you've removed your faulty battery?

He provided temps
@DRDNA asked about power properties.
I even asked him about the ac adapter.
Its all up to him now.
It would be an out of tolerance condition for the mobo bios parameters

Try using the Function - F2 (FN-F2) key combo to see if it will change the mode.
After, doing a little reading around... there are a few Toshiba owners of the L50 and L55 who had the same problem after the Bios update to version 2.00.
I did not see any details on how they did it, but, a couple stated they re-flashed the bios and one down-flashed his bios. They stated it fixed the problem of the cpu running at .798 with a 2x or 3x multiplier and restored the correct CPU multiplier & speed; also, gave them all three options for the Dynamic CPU Frequency mode (SpeedStep).
Dynamically Switchable (default) - The Power Saver controls the frequency.
Always High - Accelerates the CPU
Always Low - CPU normally uses this state
Remember, you flash the firmware at your own risk.
Good luck, whatever you decide to do.
If I were you... I would email or call Toshiba support and get their advice, too.
EDIT: I found a thread at the Toshiba forums where a poster stated, you could only downgrade using the ISO file, in the firmware download. He mentioned booting from a CD with it. You could not downgrade from the Windows firmware utility.

A Toshiba L50-B just came across my desk at a computer repair shop. The CPU freq stuck at 0.79Ghz or 798 MHz. The problem was after Bios update 2.00 the charger the customer had given us along with the computer forced the laptop into low-power mode. A different Charger (still Toshiba) at 3.95A made the Core Freq clock up immediately.
I see that the power supply solution worked for you but just in case someone else is coming across this thread, I found a solution that didn't require a new power supply so hopefully this helps someone.
1. Install the Toshiba Eco Utility
2. Go to the Power Profiles in Windows. Windows 10: Start>Settings>System>Power & Sleep>Additional Power Settings
3. The Eco Utility should have created an "Eco" profile. Change back to Balanced.
At this point for me the CPU kicked right back up to speed without rebooting.
Note: I also had the Minimum Processor Power Management state set to 75% in the "Balanced" power profile as well. This didn't matter though until after I installed the Eco Utility.
Hope that helps someone!
