My girlfriend owns a Presario 700 with a 1ghz processor and 256 megs of SDRAM. Until today the clock speed showed 996mhz and 256 megs of ram under the control panel and in system properties. Now it fluctuates between 697mhz and 498mhz, and the ram stays a constant 240 megs.
I don't know what's wrong with it. I have been on the phone with the compaq tech support twice today and have gone through a number of what they consider fixes =/, He had me clear the cmos by taking the battery out and unplug the ac adapter. Had me change all the power settings to never turn off and then eventually told me that it was normal for the speed to change. I told him that the CP system applet is not a real time system monitor and he said he would call me back in 3 or 4 hours.
Any ideas what is wrong???
