The following is from IS knowledge base article Q105628.
There are no built-in InstallScript functions to detect the specific processor speed, although the GetSystemInfo function can detect certain characteristics of the target machine. It is possible to detect the specific processor speed on Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP machines by searching the registry. More specifically, by checking the value of the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System\CentralProcessor\0\~MHz
This key will contain the exact speed of the processor, but only for these specific Operating Systems. There is currently no registry key or InstallScript function that allows the processor speed to be retrieved for Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows Me Operating Systems.
