Hi,
My computer has recently been crashing(computer locks up entirely and indefinitely) on seemingly mundane tasks such as browsing the web. I decided I was going to try a format of the OS drive to see if that remedied the issue, however I noticed that Windows(System Properties -> General) is telling me that my Athlon II X2 240 who is supposedly 2800MHz is only 784MHz. Does this mean my computer is having a problem utilizing the CPU? I am not sure what to make of it.
My questions are
Could this lead to my excessive crashing?
and if so,
What are the steps I must take to solve this problem?
Note: I didn't see a specific troubleshooting section, so I figured this would be best put in the CPU Forum.
Thanks
