New CPU isnt running as fast as it should

[Tyler Durden]

ok I have an Athlon XP1900 and its running at 1194Mhz !


how would I go about going into my BIO's and fixing this ?

btw I have 190mb sd ram :\

You may want to go itno BIOS and set your FSB to 133 instead of 100.

[Tyler Durden]

yeah thats what someone said, but if I do that, then a bunch of other things get set as well.

So would I want to set everything as 133 or what ?

like CPU freq says 100/100 right now I think, so should I set it as 133/133 ?

[james.miller]

yep.that'll do it. that means cpu/memory. set both to 133

[Tyler Durden]

alright, and if this doesnt work and I have to reset my cmos, well .. well nm, if anything goes wrong i will reset my cmos.

[Tyler Durden]

btw, does this mean that it will heat up more or what ?

[residentevil2]
