Hi, about a month ago I left windows to take a look at some Ubuntu based distros on my Dell Inspiron 15 5501 laptop. After recently when I reinstalled Windows 10 I noticed my CPU always at somewhere around 3.5 - 4 GHz. It sometimes goes down but for a brief second and only to 1.5GHz. In my old windows installation it stays low during normal use only ramps up when needed. Same thing with Ubuntu. But when I reinstalled Windows 10 my CPU runs always at max with utilization as low as 0%. I installed every driver possible from dell I tried 4 versions of bios and their factory and bios default settings. And also windows 10 power slider doesn't seem to affect clocks (I have checked with process manager and hwinfo). I'm reaching out to you as my last resort please help me. Thanks.
