I installed a new pent 4 CPU 2.8 ghz. Clock speed is set to 2.10. How do I change?

Bios version is A09.

Bus speed is 100 Mhz.

Clock speed is set to 2.10.

Cache size is 512 KB.

How do I respond to your answers without reentering a question?

thanks.I installed a new pent 4 CPU 2.8 ghz. Clock speed is set to 2.10. How do I change?Previous answerer is on to it, let me clarify a little. The bus speed on your new CPU is supposed to be 133Mhz with a 21 multiplier, yielding 2.8 Ghz. But your motherboard is old and only supports a 100 Mhz bus, which multiplied by 21 is 2.1 Ghz. A BIOS update might work, if not, you will need a new motherboard, or frankly just a new computer, Dell has some for as low as $300. As for responding, for me just click on my name which should take you to my profile and you can e-mail me from there.I installed a new pent 4 CPU 2.8 ghz. Clock speed is set to 2.10.

If you have the original 8200 chipset (850) the machine will only support up to a 2.6GHz CPU and 400MHz FSB. You can tell for sure by finding the %26quot;north chip%26quot; on the CPU board. If it says 82850 you have the old board, If it says 83850E you have the new model.
