445138 2006-04-09 08:44:00 I have an Athlon XP3000+ which is somewhere around 2.1-2.4 ghz and has been running great for about the 2 years I have had the computer. Recently my performance has been horrible in games and when I went to the properties menu, the processor speed shows up as 1.04 ghz, which is not its true speed. I am afraid that my computer is running like that is the speed, and if not then what may the problem be. Thanks in advance. Jrez (10174)

and see what that says about your CPU.

I suspect you may have overheating issues .. i.e. your heatsink/fan is covered in dust.
