Wuuuuuaaaa...... try this, it's a LITTLE bit better:

}
Unit TaktFreq;

{$B-,I-,V-,E-,S-,N-,R-,O-,X-,A+}
{$IFNDEF DEBUG}
{$D-,L-}
{$ENDIF}

{
  This unit contains a handy gadget for determining the CPU speed.  It is
  NOT coded for the Pentium family.
}

Interface

Const
  Cpu8086  = 1;
  Cpu80286 = 2;
  Cpu80386 = 3;
  Cpu80486 = 4;

Function WhatCPU : Word;
{
  This function examines the CPU and returns a number corresponding to the
  CPU type;  1 for 8086, 3 for 80386, etc.  This procedure came right out of
  Neil Rubenking's Turbo Pascal 6.0 Techniques and Utilities (thanx Neil!).
}

Procedure CPUSpeed(Var MHz, KHz : Word);
{
  This procedure is a ROUGH estimation of how fast the CPU is running in
  MegaHertz.  It was adapted from a C program found in the Intel forum of
  CIS written by Glenn Dill.  I had to do some finagling of the original
  code because C allows for a 32-bit UNSIGNED integer, whereas Pascal allows
  for a 32-bit SIGNED integer (the LongInt), therefore, I was forced to
  reduce all calculations by 10 in order to get it to fit properly.
