Asus A7V8X-X Motherboard Help

Archived from groups: alt.comp.hardware.pc-homebuilt (More info?)

I have just installed an Asus A7V8X-X motherboard and an Athlon 2500XP
processor.
When I first started the pc up and it goes to bios settings, it shows CPU
Speed 1467 MHz and CPU Frequency Multiple x 11.
Should this not show that CPU Speed as 2500 Mhz.
How do I rectify this as I cant find anything in the book on how to change
this.
TIA
