If you want to underclock you will need to go into the Bios, but i doubt you can change anything because it may be all locked. What are your temps ?.
Laptops may feel hot but the temps are not always critical.

In the power management options, you can specify "processor state" usage for either battery or plugged in. Try limiting the CPU to 50% to see if it impacts on your temps.

I've tried making the Maximum processor state 50%, then 20%, then even 5%. It doesn't change anything. IT IS USELESS!
Setting the maximum processor state does not affect the clock speeds of your CPU. It is only a soft limit on the CPU utilisation.
You must use the BIOS (can do it through Windows but I wouldn't) to underclock your computer.
I am just curious, why are you underclocking your CPU? Is it a laptop?
