    I installed the AMD64 3400+ into my M6805 and on battery it drops down to 793MHZ now I know this is normal with the AMD64 3000+

    But is that normal for the AMD 3400+

    If it is I'll just have to reinstall Win XP Pro to get full power on it like I did with the 3000+

    Any help is appreicated.

    I would say that is normal behaviour. The software clocks the CPU down to a set speed. Regardless of the default speed of the CPU.

    Expect your vid drivers today :)

    So regardless of the AMD CPU even the M6811 will drop it's power down just like the M6805?

    Hey can you resend the drivers I never got them.
