why is RTCW recognizing my p4 1.9 as a p3? of does it just do that?

when the wolf console loads it says

why does it recognize it as a p3?
It is a dell comp but i know it is a p4 1.9 loaded with everthing640*480 cuz i set the res to high and had to load in safe mode then load back normally what you are seeing is the normal load




~dont worry about the bypassing cd checks i do own the game but d/led the no cd crack for it so i could play networked with my bro on my other comp.~

the program probably doesnt know what a P4 is, and the thinks its a P3...

if you could get a P3 running at 1.9 GHz... wow.. it would tear up a P4

 

[MikeMike]

yeah that would be smoking but how would it not know what a p4 is? it was just released?

Might just be a left over from Q3A.
