I had an old Celeron 400 / 256MB RAM.
I formatted it, installed Windows XP and everything went fine.
I was working with it the whole day without touching any settings, or
anything else - just playing solitaire and then shut it down without
anything strange happening.
The next day I press the power button and before loading the windows,
under the BIOS information, I noticed that it said "Celeron 600MHz"
instead of 400MHz!!! and it would hang there, before loading the Win
XP operation system..
I flashed the BIOS (pulled out the battery for 10 minutes) and
restarted the PC. Immediately it showed the correct 400MHz and logged
into Windows normally.
I restarted the PC and again it showed 600MHz!!! What the heck is
this??
What is changing the CPU speed information, and why?? How can I fix
this???

Its possesed man, go down to your local church and get a bucket of
holy water and pour it over it make sure you get everything soaked
inside then your machine will be fixed

Shut up!!
Your not only a "Troll"
But your mean.

It's possible, but I've never heard of such a thing.
that when WinXp boots, it's putting up the clock speed.
I've never heard of such a thing really, but if it never did it with Win98
then the os is turning it up.

HELLO NURSE.

You're such a wise-a**ss-super-tech OCZ, hah??
Why don't you just admit that you don't have a clue??
When I find out the solution for this, I will send it to you and you'll get wiser..
