cpu throttling down during gaming

Hi I have a hp dv7-1135nr laptop. spec's are 2.0 amd turion x2 rm-70.
the problem I am having is random lag spikes while either gaming or using programs like skype or firefox.
I downloaded a program called cpu-z . I ran cpu-z during my normal usage of the laptop.
I noticed that my cpu's clock speed would drop to 500 mhz even while gaming.
I Have not managed to find a speed stepping option in the bios .
I also have the power profile completely turned up.I have also recently updated my bios via hp's techsupport.
Does anyone Have an idea of how to shut down the speed stepping.
