Processor Type
This field displays your computer’s processor type, including the

Note:
Windows incorrectly identifies the Pentium III
processor as a Pentium II or Pentium Pro on the General tab
of the Windows System Properties sheet. This does not
effect the performance of the Pentium III processor. The
BIOS correctly detects the Pentium III processor at startup.
Check for a patch to fix the identification in the General tab
at Microsoft’s website (www.microsoft.com) or the NEC CSD
website (www.nec-computers.com).
