    Hi All,

    I just purchased a zv5000 w/AMD 64 3000 and Windows recognizes it as only a 701MHZ and sometimes a 350MHZ. Sandra reports it as a 798MHZ. When I look in the BIOS it does show up as an 1800MHZ. Is this just reporting error or am I not getting full performance out of the CPU? Any help would be appreciated! Also, whats up with the BIOS? Doesnt seem like I can make any changes to settings for CPU speed.
