mV Boost showing @3900 MHz when VT is enabled in BIOS. Any way to fix?

Is there anyway to still have an mV Boost for 800MHz when Virtualization Technology (VT) is enabled in BIOS? Mine shows as @3900MHz, even with the P Cache ratio set to Default. It starts out at 39 when VT is enabled. The screenshot is for example, I did not actually apply it yet.

The majority of settings in the FIVR window do not work when VT is enabled. No voltage control, no mV Boost, no nothing.

Disable VT or do not use ThrottleStop.

Dang it, I thought Core Isolation made most stuff not work, so I have Core Isolation disabled. Thanks for this important info though.

I will see if there is a way to select a custom set of BIOS settings with a hotkey during boot up just so I can easily enable VT when I truly need it, but run with VT disabled during the evening when I am not working on whatever I need a VM for.
 
Whenever ThrottleStop shows some odd ball numbers in the FIVR monitoring table Voltage column, that confirms that ThrottleStop is being blocked from reading the CPU voltage control register. When you see this, ThrottleStop cannot read or write any information to this register.

After running ThrottleStop with VBS enabled, if you decide to disable VBS, reboot and delete the ThrottleStop.INI configuration file. Some or the settings that get saved to this file seem to be corrupted when this file is written while VBS is enabled.
