I have a coputer about a year and half old, anyway last night I had to reset the BIOS due to some unplesnentness, which I'm not willing to discuss. Anyway that went well however now the computer thinks the process is AMD athalon XP 2500+ when it actualy is a 3200+, I know this for a fact it is printed on the processor (I checked). Anyway when I was in the BIOS a wile ago I thought I saw I clock setting option, anyway now I can't find it. Can anyone tell me where in the BIOS these options should be. Some Specs:
Board: nVidia-nForce2 Soltek BIOS: Phoenix Technologies, LTD 6.00 PG 11/28/2003 Precessor: 3200+, 1.65v, L2 Cache 512kb, Max FSB 400mhz |

Sorry its hard to tell that. I dont know your bios settings.
Maybe there's a setting that you can change your CPU clock. Like my bios. Is there any autoset-up or auto detect? lol! As i have known bios automatically detects your processor speed. |

Read your manual. If you couldn't find try use then assembler to write in your BIOS e-eprom chip.

Sorry I forgot about this thread, I fixed the problem, turns out the FSB frequency was set at the default 166mhz rather then the 200 it should have been, thanks for your help.
