My BIOS reporting 2500+ mobile barton as AMD sempron. Is this usual? I have upgrade BIOS version to last one and nothing change.
Is there any way that BIOS display corect CPU or unknown will be better! Sorry guys but I don't like to se Sempron name at all, becouse I hate it.ASUS A7V880

That link takes you to the updated bios for your motherboard, to display SEMPRON.You have a fair point, but I have to say I am far happier that my machine says 2500 Athlon Barton 333mhz, hehehe purely because that's what's in there!
:-)

Ooops. I misread. Lol. I would of course prefer to have a Mobile Barton! Lol.
Well, update anyway, it might fix it.

Never heard of a XP-M being detected as a Sempron before...it usually says "unknown processor". The main thing is it's running at 2200MHz. What speed Sempron is it being recognized as?

1800+ @ 8 x 210MHz

WinME/WinXP Pro

In BIOS it says AMD Sempron (only)
2200Mhz (If I lower frequency it will say that is amd sempron 2500+ or 2600+... with 1830MHz......). Everything else is as mobile (L1=64, L2=512) in windows offcourse.ASUS A7V880

Everything is reporting corectly just CPU name wrong. Even CPU-Z says that the CPU name is amd athlon xp-m, but CPU cpecification that it is sempron.
