Setting Processor Type - in the BIOS

moldboy
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.

  3. Overclocking My Processor N Motherboard
    Did some crazy overclocking here (3)
    ok, I know that I have quite a number of real crazy overclockings before. like clocking a 2.4GHz
    Pentium IV processor to rum at 3.6 GHz (Woooow). That is a kool 50% overclocking and guess what?
    Everything was still normalk even after the crazy overclocking....Can you believe that. I do
    respect the Intel Northbridge chipsets as they really allow you to do some very kool clocking to
    your processor, RAM and Northbridge. I have used a number of Pentium IV class processors and
    motherboards (6 pairs to be exact) within a quite a very short interval of time (within the past 1 ....
