I purchased this laptop for its speed, but it has been feeling slower than it should. I downloaded PC wizard 2009 to see what was going on under the hood. I realized the operating frequency was set at 1600, when the marketing is at 2400. im losing almost 1GHZ of speed. How do i fix this?http://www.aeonity.com/fireant/images/processor.jpg
