| 796033 | 2009-07-29 05:42:00 | I just put my pc together and when I load windows it says my CPU is running at 800 MHz when its meant to be 3.2GHz, what I wanted to know is how do I get it to run at 3.2 GHz like its meant to, without overclocking any of the cores, my specs are CPU: products.amd.com Motherboard: www.asus.com RAM: www.gskill.com thanks in advance to anyone that can help |

| 796034 | 2009-07-29 05:58:00 | It MAY be issues with the CPU not coming out of power saving mode correctly Try :Turn off power saving in control panel ('always on'),disable hybernate & standby. turn off power saving in bios download AMD(?) CPU drivers from AMD website, download latest m/b drivers: AMD may have newer ones than Asus set CPU & RAM speeds to auto in bios, check jumpers (if any ) on m/b Uninstall all the Asus software if you installed any Check for bios updates for the board Was this a 'clean' win install, or an existing Win from an older PC/motherboard |

| 796035 | 2009-07-29 06:01:00 | Have you played about , adjusted any of the BIOS settings / If so , set them back to default, and see what happens. Also check that you have the latest BIOS in the Motherboard. |

| 796036 | 2009-07-29 10:40:00 | Maybe it is just in low power mode. See here www.anandtech.com where the min speed is 800MHz. Run cpu-z (google it) and run a stress tester to get it to up the speed. |

| 796037 | 2009-07-30 01:23:00 | Most power saving is a drop from like 9 to 6 of the multiplier.....3.2 to 800 is not a power saving mode, I would imagine the BIOS is reading the CPu wrong and set the wrong FSB | SolMiester (139) | ||
