Athlon 1700Xp Speeds

I have an athlon 1700xp processor and when i run pc probe it tells me its maximum speed is 1200 but it is running at 1466 why does pc probe say it can only run at 1200? HHHHHEEEELP

 

What does it show on the first screen when you boot?

Also check your bios to make sure the bus speed and cpu are right. Possibly one of them is wrong.

 

The first screen identifies the processor as 1700xp all settings are set to auto

 

It is possible then that pc probe is giving you a false reading. It should be running at full speed with the xp1700 showing on the first screen.

 

Start/run/type dxdiag and press enter. The first page will tell you your processor speed

 

Some "sytem info" software can be faulty. Do as Brian says and check you OS readout itself. And I'm usre you and others are aware, an AMD 1700 XP CPU is 1.47GB
