Must be a fluke on my part then. Cuz everything got better with a new processor.
Probably not a fluk really. I have run into things of this nature after installing a new part and such. For example, my machine claimed to have PC2700 ram when I purchased it. When I opened the case it was PC3200 yet my computer in the bios was reading it as PC2700 and making the machine run like it was PC2700. Once I changed the bios and the machine recognized it as PC3200, the machine ran faster. Crazy stuff!
