Michael, I can't get it to pause (using pause key) long enough to write
all the numbers but I do have the manuel.  I know that it is an American
Megatrends with a sis530 chipset. Super Socket 7.  It is made by PC100
and their number is M598LMR.  Something odd happened a little while ago.
I checked the speed while on the internet and it was over 350.  I checked
it twice but after getting off the web it came down to 333.  I just
rebooted and as soon as the desktop cam up it read 351 but quickly
changed back to 333.  I am using the 350 processor now.  I went to set up
and to the AMIBIOS PNP SETUP (for the processor) and this it what it
reads.
CPU PLUG & PLAY----------------------------------------------AUTO
CPU BRAND---------------------------------------------------------AMD
K6-2
VCCORE VOLTAGE-----------------------------------------------2.2V
CPU SPEED-----------------------------------------------------------350
CPU BASE FREQ.---------------------------------------------------100MHz
CPU MULTIPLE FACTORY---------------------------------------1.5X/3.5X
All that's hapening might be normal, I don't know.  I used the AMD SPEED
CHECKER to check the speed.
Thanks,
Joe
