Processor/FSB not being detected properly

I'd be over the moon if anyone could help me with this.

 

I'm running a Core 2 Duo E6400 rated at 2.13Ghz (on an MSI 945GM3-F mobo), with my system updated to 10.4.9 using the JaS update, and running the latest Netkas kernel.

 

After this, my CPU speed is still being detected wrong. It's running at 1.6Ghz. (Wrong in sysctl -a, and in xbench it performs half as well as other E6400s). It's driving me up the wall.

 

Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? Is there maybe a kernel flag that'll let me override the FSB autodetection and set my own?

 

Any help would really be much appreciated!

 

 

edit: Strangely enough, the problem seems to be with my BIOS settings. :)

Well, although it seems to be fixed for you, if you want to know, the kernel flag is "FSB=XXX" (without the quotes, where XXX is your FSB).
