Title: reloaded windows affects processor??
Post by: airborne37 on July 17, 2004, 09:11:51 AM
last week my computer crashed, i was unable to get windows to boot up so i took in in to a repair shop.  apparently i had a virus or something which had corrupted windows. anyway, the tech shop got it back up and running fine, except for one thing i just noticed. my cpu(amd athlon xp3000+), which was running @ 2.2Ghz, is now only running @ 1.29Ghz. Any ideas? i don't want to take this thing back to the shop again.

They perhaps reset the BIOS back to it's default settings.

I suggest you enter the BIOS and search for the System BUS and tell us what rate is it is set to.
