jwkuipers Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 I was wondering if there is any way to change CPU speed in Windows XP system properties. I would also like to change the string of text identifying the CPU version. Anyone know if this is possible without changing the processor or overclocking/underclocking? Thanks.

Groovedude Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 What do you mean just change the TXT speed it displays or acutaul speed.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwkuipers Posted July 24, 2003 Author Share Posted July 24, 2003 Just the text that is displayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwkuipers Posted July 24, 2003 Author Share Posted July 24, 2003 No not at all. Its a joke I want to play on a co-worker. He has a dual P3-600, and I want to stick dual P2-266's in instead and see how long it takes for him to figure out what I did. We do things like this all the time.

Elliot B. Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 Tweaking programs normally have a section to edit the System Properties dialogue. Research the following... Fresh UI jv16 Power Tools MagicTweak X-Setup Or maybe look here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToastGodSupreme Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 Sorry, didn't catch that last bit in your original post. Still, I think underclocking his processor would be hilarious. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divinatum Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 you could open up sysdm.cpl in resource hacker, and edit it that way..

Is there a way to keep it from rewriting the changes so that it comes up with changes I made? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
