Thanks Zack, Bryce, everyone else. My BIOS showed "CPU Speed" set at
"100/100 MHz". Couldn't find "FSB" or similar so I figured this must
be it. I found I could select either "100/133 MHz" or "133/133 Mhz" so
I chose the latter (blindly). As predicted, my system now proclaims
"AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2200+".
I hope this helped someone else too. Again, thanks!
