Hellbent Posted February 25, 2002 When ZDOOM loads it tells you the speed your processor is at. about 6 times out of 7 mine displays the correct speed of 1.477GHz but every once in a while it displays 386MHz or some other low number. Does this happen to anyone else? 0 Share this post Link to post
Lüt Posted February 25, 2002 Wtf?Apparently not. I don't really care what it thinks, as long as it runs right. Not that I really use ZDoom for anything anyway. 0 Share this post Link to post
Zro Posted February 26, 2002 It always shows 902.5MHz on startup, it has never been diffrent. 0 Share this post Link to post
Vominus Posted February 26, 2002 ZDoom is purrrrrrdy. I like to stare at distant things in 1280x1024. 0 Share this post Link to post

Does this happen to anyone else? IIRC ZDoom computes the processor's speed on it's own (i.e. does not rely on info Windows is giving), and sometimes it happens that it computes wrong. It happened to me a bunch of times too. Nothing to worry about, ZDoom will be as fast as always :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Opulent Posted March 16, 2002 Zdoom probably only queries with one or two calls. if your processor got an interrupt from another, more important device at that moment, there would be a wait and thus a miscalculation. This is just a guess though... I'm sure Mr. H. knows the answer without even thinking about it... 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted March 16, 2002 I had 3 mhz once. I didn't know DOOM would run on such computers. 0 Share this post Link to post

Fredrik Posted March 21, 2002 Damn, I'll have to stick to sub-P100 processors and 30Ghz for a good while :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Lüt Posted March 22, 2002 It usually shows some random variation between 497 and 503 for me. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted March 22, 2002 Originally posted by Lüt It usually shows some random variation between 497 and 503 for me. That's pretty accurate. Though mine is more accurate :P It says 1400.### all the time. 0 Share this post Link to post
Shockwav3 Posted March 25, 2002 my worst has been 4.######mhz i think that's quite strange on a 750mhz comp. 0 Share this post Link to post
