I have had a PC given to me. Looks quite old and it is running Win98.

How can I tell the speed of the processor.?

I have looked in START/CONTROL PANEL/SYSTEM but it only tells me what it is,
not the speed.

Put a memtest86 cd in and boot. You'll see the cpu freq and amount of
ram right away. You may need to go into bios to tell it to boot from
cd before hdd - leave it that way.

In the unlikely event that its a very old 95 era machine heavily
upgraded you might need to use a memtest floppy.
