Sandra not reading correctly??

I have an Abit KT7-Raid motherboard, 1 ghz Socket A T-bird, PC150mhz Mushkin HSDRAM, and Sparkle 300 w Pwr supply. After having run Sandra Pro on win98 and Win Millenium, my FSB reads 100 mhz? It should read 133 or 150 mhz right? I do have Host+PCIclk enabled in the Bios. Why wont Sandra read this correctly, and how do i fix this or is there another software that will give me good readings on my ram speed or FSB speed?
 
No, your FSB should be 100mhz (DDR though, so it's actually 200) because that's what all athlons and durons normally run at. Your ram should be 133, but Sandra doesn't always report it right.
 
I kinda forget, but I think Sandra reports my TBird as 100 DDR, which it should, cause that's what it is. Your memory may or may not be at 133....it should be, but it might not be in the BIOS.
 
Weird, Sandra (profesional edition with the upgrade which did not seem to do anything as reference systems are all still the same, maxing at Athlon 600Mhz) reports my FSB as 201Mhz which is correct but my memory speed at 150Mhz? That's weird.
