Picked up a cheap XP2000 for my PC. It is recorded fine as an AMD running at 1.67Mhz which is correct. Everything is hunky dory.
Only thing is, I know it should be recognised as an "XP 2000" rather than "Genuine AMD @ 1.67 Mhz" and that a BIOS upgrade would have it recognised "properly". Only trouble is, I am mightily nervous of BIOS upgrades and if the moniker "XP2000" is purely cosmetic I have no intention of flashing the BIOS.
SOOO.. basically, if it says AMD @ 1.67 Mhz does it matter a hoot? I am assuming not, as this is the correct speed.
Board is an MSI K7t266 Pro2-RU
PS. It was a silly upgrade from an 1800XP, but it was cheap and this board will not run Thoroughbred even with a BIOS flash unless you chop off a resistor or something (no thanks!)
