Default Slowing Down the CPU Speed

Hi,

I have two WinBook XL2 laptops with Windows 98se. Most of the time, I use
them off line (off the Web) and I don't need the CPU running at full speed
(400Mhz). The problem is the noisy fan that cools the CPU. This fan is not
defective since it is noisy on both laptops and it runs constantly after a
warm up period.

I could not find anything in "Setup" or the manual that allows you to
reduce the CPU speed.

Is there a utility that would allow me to slow down the CPU, thus
reducing the heat up so the fan doesn't constantly run?

Thanks in advance, Brad
