238401 2004-05-22 01:26:00 Hello, I've recently recieved an athlonXP 2000+ from someone, and after putting it into my Asus A7M266 mobo, it is detected by windows as a duron. I've updated the BIOS already to the latest version, and it's detected as an athlonXP at startup.
Is this normal? Or should I update something?
Thanks

Were you running a Duron previously and is your BIOS and/or motherboard set to Auto detect the CPU.

Bye
