Can someone tell me how fast this laptop is running at:

If if its only 1.18GHz, what could be wrong?

Thanks

 

Nothing is wrong. Processor will speed up when it's needed. Otherwise, it
runs at the lower speed to keep cool. It's called throttling or something
like that.

My PIII 750 runs at 600 most of the time. My 1400 runs at 800 most of the
time. When the processor needs more horsepower, they speed right up to
handle the task, then slow down to reduce power consumption and heat
generation.

 

What do you think it should be or what were you told it was? Get service
pack 2. You need it.
