Re: sempron processors

thanks river rat
when the new processor said 1000Mhz the first thing i did was go to the
asrock website and i flashed the bios with the newest version they had for my
board but nothing changed i then went to amd's website to get any drivers or
tools that might have helped still no joy so i have no more ideas. i dont
know why but about 4 months ago a friend of mine bought the same board i have
and a sempron 2400 and his pc says that his is running at 1.67Ghz... not a
great improvement but a bit better than mine. thanks for the imput if you
have any more ideas id be greatful

regards titch
