Originally posted by Cellar Dweller + Yeah, I think you're about right with the speeds and times there. Doing a bit of research I find the following CPU information: 1997 - Intel Pentium with MMX Overdrive Processor Speed 125, 150, 166, 180, 200 MHz 1997 - Intel Pentium with MMX(P55C) Split Rail Voltage Processor Speed 166, 200, 233 MHz So for a 9 year old computer, the maximum we're looking at here is around 233Mhz. I'd like some more explanation on this mysterious 1.3Ghz system from 1997  |

9 years ago would be 1997. As a point of reference, I remember that the 500MHz Pentium III came out in 1999.
I can't imagine how a 1.3 GHz CPU could even plug into a motherboard that old. |

I was thinking the same thing, unless the processor is newer then the pc..
ive had a similar problem on this pc, although it shows up as 900mhz under the my computer properties, using a benchmarking program showed the real clock speed at 1.99Ghz it might be windows being stupid and misreading it, because now it reads normal for me, so check again, or use a benchmarking app, and see what it says. |

Uh, I didn't think 1.3GHz PCs existed 9 years ago...  |

Nope.
Never gone higher than that. |

It might be overheating and slowing down to avoid damaging itself. Has it ever shown up at more than 1.3ghz? |

It keps changing.
When i bought it, it was about 1.3 Ghz few years later, Shows up betwen 700 - 1000 Mhz Right now, PC is about 9 years old, Always shows up 500 Mhz. Anyone know why? |
