Reply: (edit)Make sure your motherboard supportsxp 2800+. If your motherboard supports only xp 2100+, then your 2800+ will automatically underclock itself to a xp 2100+. If you are sure it is supported then, its because they probably send you the wrong proccessors.

Reply: (edit)If you look carefully on your Motherboard you should find a little set of 2 switches, these set your cpu clock. The same happened to my Athlon 2000+ with the switches being set on their default it was reading as a 1400+. If you look in your Mobo manual it should tell you what the combinations set the clock to, move it up one notch and then see if your CPU is recognised as a 2800+.
