Alliedassault - View Single Post - CPU speed problems with my new computer:( help

First of all, what kind of motherboard do you have ? Your problem is obvious
and related to FSB and multipliers so if you tinker in the CMOS a bit, you will
find the problem. Your processor should be running at 166mhz double-speed
and the multiplier should be set at 11 (166mhz x 11 = 1833).

Don't even TRY overclocking to a 200mhz double-speed FSB (400mhz) to
increase your speed to 2GHZ until you get a good heatsink: that is, unless
you want to buy a new processor (and whatever else will burn out as well)...
