XP2600 running at 1262?
I've run some diagnostic utilities and they report my CPU (2600
thoroughbred) to be running at 1262. My bios says (my FSB?) speed is 100. I tried to change it to 166 and it failed to boot (rebooted on its own with setting changed back to 100) My questions: 1) can some recommend a good diagnostic utility that will tell me CPU info (type, clock speed etc) memory info (type, speeds etc) and all my bus speeds. 2) What the heck is going on and can I get my speeds up to where they should be? system: XP2600+ Thororoughbred GA-7VAXP Ultra 1.5 gig ram (can't remember what tpye but I think its generic P2700 which is why I need a good diagnostic utility!)

Divider for it should be 4:2:1. -- Abit KT7-Raid (KT133) Tbred B core CPU @2400MHz (24x100FSB) http://mysite.verizon.net/res0exft/cpu.html |

I should say make sure SW1 is set to auto. Otherwise the FSB is forced to
100... "John Constable" wrote in message ... I've run some diagnostic utilities and they report my CPU (2600 thoroughbred) to be running at 1262. My bios says (my FSB?) speed is 100.
