Answer» Hi, I recently replaced the 733mHz Celeron in my server with an 800mHz Pentuim III. My problem is that the PENTIUM III is not running at full speed (about 548mHz).

Hi,
I recently replaced the 733mHz Celeron in my server with an 800mHz Pentuim III. My problem is that the PENTIUM III is not running at full speed (about 548mHz).

I have checked the obvious things such as:

- Temperature
- Drivers

but the system still won't run at full speed. I looked in the BIOS but I can't find any setting to fix this.

System info:

- Award BIOS v6.00PGN
- Motherboard - Bona BN694 Pro (Rebranded Jetway)
- Pentium III 800mHz (Coppermine)
- Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard

Thanks in advance,
Cameron GrayWhere are you getting the speed setting reports from ? ?
BIOS, Windows System Information, CPUZI was able to fix the problem.

I found a manual for the motherboard on the internet and realised that I NEEDED to switch over one jumper. The computer is now running at full speed. Woo Hoo!
