AMD ATHLON 2700 RUNS AT 1.2GIGS?
« on: March 07, 2005, 09:30:37 AM »
my 2.17 gig amd athlon 2700+ processor says it runs at 1.2 gigs?

It's recognized as 1.2 for all my programs on windows *like games and such that scan for it*

why does it do this? is windows being retarted? do i have to change a bios setting?

I dont know why this is like this!?!? *and yes it is 2700 and yes it is a 2.17gig Process, amd said it was themselves*

post here or please email me at [email protected]

THANKYOU!

-Sam

    Sam Ubetcha......Which operating system are you using ?
    How long has it been displaying like that ?
    Has it ever displayed correctly ?
    Is this pc one you built yourself ?

      Sam Ubetcha.....Is this your board ?
      SY-K7VME (discontinued)
      AMD Socket-A Based VIA KM400 Chipset micro ATX Motherboard Featuring Embedded Graphics with 1 AGP slot, 2 channel Audio, Integrated 10/100 LAN, 8X/4X AGP slot, and USB 2.0

      The sound card is on board according to this ......or did you add another ?

      Do you have the latest bios ?

      If your using a 200watt power supply ...that's a bit small.

      I havent been able to find the manual yet to check your set up .........are you sure you have it set up properly ?

      Exactly what kind of Ram do you have installed ? I know you say 768 mb ....what kind ?( speed )

      let us know
