Thanks.
I have tried both of those options and it is still limited to 800 on 
restarting.
I edited grub 2 as this is the maverick meerkat update.

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_osi=\"!Windows 2006\""

So, is it acpi or the BIOS or speedstep?
If the above line worked then it would be a BIOS problem but the fact it 
doesn't work, means it must be something else other than the BIOS?
