3GHz P4 800FSB maybe running a little slow... help!

with my newfound hyperthreading, i mostly run seti@home and other processor intensive applications... but it seems slow at times. From what I
read around a 3GHz should be able to do a seti packet in around 90 minutes, but mine takes 2.5 hours consistnently. Any cpu program I run on it says it's a real 3ghz cpu. Any thoughts?

Pentium 4 3.0GHz w/HT
1GB PC3200 DDR400
160GB RAID 0 (2x80GB WD 8MB Cache)
ATI Radeon 9500 NP > soft modded 9700 Pro
Gigabyte 8KNXP Rev. 1
Windows XP Pro SP1

you using the full Screensaver type Seti@Home or the Faster more Compact CommandLine Version? the CLV does complete a packet in about 90Mins on my 3.0 system. try ftp://alien.ssl.berkeley.edu/pub/setiath...mdline.exe

even though it says i386-winnt... it runs awesome on my P4 3.0 win WinXP. Hope that helps

Windows XP comes from NT though so that would be it Tongue
