Hey guys, I just bought an AMD Athlon XP 2000+. It is supposed to be running at a normal clock speed of 1.8GHZ. I am NOT overclocking it and it is still running at (get this) 1250MHZ. This is the most pathetic thing ever. Someone please tell me what is wrong. It is running 600MHZ than normal. Is something wrong with the chip. What the hell is going on????? Please tell me. Thank You. BYE

Go into the bios. Check your FSB or bus speed. Change it to 133Mhz.

You're running at 12.5x100 instead of 12.5x133
 
There should be a jumper somewhere on the motherboard - the motheroard's diagram will better explain where the jumper is - that controls the default FSB speed. Two choices: 100MHz and 133MHz. You want 133MHz. Take that jumper off the two metal pins it is currently covering, lets call them the 1st and 2nd pins, and place it on the 2nd and 3rd pins. Problem solved. Reboot the machine.

roshan you are mistaken about stock speed, but the guys are correct, change fsb from 100 to 133
