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 CPUSpd(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.
