Sometimes there are jumpers on the mobo that need to be set so that the
correct speed is attained...consult your mobo manuel for the location of
these jumpers if there are any...also there might be a limitation within
your bios....you need the manuel or go to the mobo mfgr's web page...

I have a computer with a MB fairly new, I believe Year 2000.  The
manual
states that it supports all Socket 7 processors with a 100MHz system
bus.
 I have been using a 300 MHz AMD processor figured at 100 MHz.  A
program
reads the actual speed as 285.  Another program did the same.  I
installed a 350 MHz AMD processor and the programs tell me that it is
reading 333MHz.  Can you tell  me why the 300 is not 300 and the 350
is
not 350?  I let it automatically detect these processors.
