If you find anything and matters have moved on here, perhaps >you would be kind enough to email me. > Keith Unfortunately it does look like the Celeron (P4 core) has problems in Rybka. I just had a friend test his Celeron 2.4GHz and it got 31408 (his Athlon XP 2.2 Barton got 107k). That is the older Celeron, not the Celeron-D. Do you know if yours is the original Celeron or the newer Celeron-D (-D should have more cache, Prescott core, etc)? If you're unsure you could try downloading CPU-Z from here: http://www.cpuid.com/download/cpu-z-131.zip
