Pentium II thinks its a Celeron

[wizard5233]

What do you do to change that when your computer thinks that it is a Pentium II 386 processor when it is really a Celeron 586 processor, how do you fix that so your computer will become a Celeron again?

how does it run?? like a celeron? if so, don't worry bout it

 

[ApacheXMD]

ok is it really a celeron or a p2? Your title and your post are conflicting.
and where exactly is it saying that it's a celeron/p2?

There's 2 ways you can check for definite:

1: Download Frequency ID from La Intella's site HERE & run it.

2: Check the SL-number on the S-SPEC tables. (SL-number is found on the CPU. It's a total of 5 digits long. Example: SL123).

Pentium II SL-table can be found HERE
Celeron SL-table can be found HERE.

The quickest way would be Frequency ID though ... to make sure.

The bios may not reconise the cpu, try updating

Or try Intel's CPU ID utility.

Im slow today.... It took me a minute to recognize who La Intella was..........

Agreed, the BIOS probably needs new microcodes.
