    Question New CPU Running to slow

    I just put together a new Soyo SK-K7VTA Pro V1.0 Barebones kit with a AMD Athlon XP2400+, 2.0 Ghz. When I boot up it says that I only have a XP1800+, 1.5 GHz. HELP

    Sounds like you've got the Front Side Bus speed set wrong. Here is the manual if you need it:

    And I'll move this to Hardware where you can get better help with this one
    Nick.

    You'll need to set the FSB (Front Side Bus) to 133 and the Clock Multiplier to 15 to achive 1995 (1.995).

    I have the Athalon 2400+ and all I did was set the fsb to 133, it's now running at 2.01ghz.

    Took advice, found and changed the FSB settings on the MB from 200MHz to 266MHz. Thank you much
