that its a duron. It makes no sense. Jay

Probably just a 'glitch' in the BIOS. Try a program like wcpuid or aida
and see what it is listed as.
Just cosmetics otherwise.
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.h-oda.com/" target="_blank">http://www.h-oda.com/</a> clk on download and select Wcpuid 3.1a.

If the bios reports it wrong, so does windows since it gets its info from
the bios. Are you sure you don't have one of the new 1600MHz Durons? I can
see where that might get reported as a 2000+ Duron.
