>Description:
I have problems with my Athlon Thunderbird 700 on an Asus K7M Motherboard (Bios 1009) and FreeBSD 4.2.
The system is very very slow, like on an old 386. Keyboard clicks are delayed, it like I work over a
slow network. I have this problems since I updatet from an Athlon 500 to this Athlon Thunderbird 700. 
I have on the same Harddisk Win98 and Win2K and they work without problems, fast and stable.
After the installation of the new processor I made a BIOS-Upgrade to the latest version.
Before I made the BIOS-upgrade, the system was slow, like on an PII 200 and
unstable on all Win98, Win2k and FreeBSD. The BIOS has not recognized the CPU
correctly ("AMD-(unknown)"). With 3DMark2000 it only reached about 600 points.
After the BIOS-upgrade everything worked great on Win98 and Win2k, I reached 1771
points with 3DMark2000, but FreeBSD not worked correctly.
This situation is disastrous for me, because I had to work under FreeBSD, so I hope, that somebody can help.
