I am having trouble readjusting my proccessor clock/speed after it got thrown off. I am using Win XP pro. Any bit of help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Are you talking about the cpu speed? That's usually controlled by jumpers/switches on the motherboard and/or settings in the bios - not in XP.

yes, the CPU speed. I have a 2.4 Ghz proccessor ands it displaying as a 1.8 ghz proccessor.

If you haven't been adjusting "things" it might be something like this.

Plenty more articles like this if while online you type "processor speed" in the Help and Support search box.
