That's the link to my cpu on my comp. The website says the CPU is 1.67 GHZ Processor. But when Examining My Computer's properties, it says my CPU is 1.25? Is microsoft trying to spook me out, or did the website lie or something?

I have a 2.4 ghz celeron, and my computer reads it as a 2.39, and a system monitor I have reads it at a little less than that. I wouldn't worry, my computer counts all but eight megabytes of my RAM. Don't worry about it.

good call goldeyes, either that (which would be better) or run dxdiag in the start and run menu. I highly recommend using the program that goldeyes posted though, its highly accurate and tells alot about your cpu, if not that then go to www.guru3d.com and download sandrasoft 2004 and click on the processor (not under benchmarks) and it will tell you everything including what type of processor instructions you have, what type of core it is, what micron process it is ect. Good luck!

Hey, thanks for that program! It turned out my Comp was lying. I guess it's another reason not to trust Windows. :p

Don't you just hate it your FSB is 132.7 instead of 133.3.
all but eight megabytes of my RAM
Can disable the intergrated video? That should fix that. And please upgrade that Celery. If you believe its an okay processor read this (http://www.anandtech.com/cpu/showdoc.html?i=1927).

I have an AMD Athlon 1.67 GHZ CPU, KT3 Ultra2 MoBo, Geforce4 4200. I really don't think sound matters,. and I just can't remeber anything else right now. :p
