Hi guys, slightly noobish question but I am rusty! I've built myself a Core 2 Duo (E2220 2.4Ghz, , Corsair 6400 2Gb, Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L).
When I went into the BIOS I noticed that the multiplier had been set to 7 so it was running at 1.4Ghz. I can set it as high as 11 (the last option the BIOS gives me) which is 2.2Ghz which is 200Mhz short of what it should be running at.
Am I missing any other configuration steps?
Edit: I just noticed that the E2220 is only supported in the F8a firmware of the motherboard, I bet when I go home and check I don't have that version. Regardless, is there anything else I should set before installing the OS?
