AMD XP 2000.....1.25Ghz????..need help

[cabo1027]

I have and AMD XP 2000 chip on a Soyo dragon lite board and I have had this board chip combo fort a few months and it's working fine. But I just noticed when I booted up that in CMOS screen that my processor says AMD 1265000hz....it's an XP 2000, It should be 1.67Ghz not 1.25....I know for sure that it an XP 2000....I double checked and open SOft Sandra software and sure enough it says there too 1.25GHZ.....Is there something in the Bios that I need to change to make it 1.65......I'm feeling very ripped offf right now......

check your fsb

What he said.

A little more clarification - your Front Side Bus is set at 100MHz in the BIOS. You need to look for that setting and set it to 133MHz. That will give you the proper 12.5x133 = 1667MHz speed. It may be under "CPU Settings" or some similar header.

Now, prepare for a "free upgrade"

- M4H

Your motherboard may also have a jumper that will differentiate between 100 and 133 fsb. My EPoX 8KHA+ does.
