Well Athlon XP has two models......one was Thoroughbred and don't exactly remember the name of the other....
so that's the stock speed of ur processor

Is there a diff in your mobos and ram modules?

There can't be so much diff between 2 different cores.

1.5 GHz !!! thats strange ... did u change any jumper ??

There should be a CPU speed jumper somewhere on the board. Your FSB is running at 200MHz. It must run at 266 MHz. Check your mobo manual.

If I remember correctly, the earlier XP2400s were of 2Ghz speed and later ones with somewhat lower speed and probably larger L2 cache. But I also dont think the differnce was this much.

two XP 2400+ .. Barton and Thoroughbred's .... ht former was 2.0 GHz (i think) with 512 KB L2 , while the later was the same 2.0 GHz with 256 KB L2 ... thats all ...
