Your system may have reset itself into safe boot in the bios.
This is caused by a failed boot or boot error.
The Bios resets the speed back to a slower default speed to enable you to diagnose the proplem

The cure is simple.
At boot during the post enter the Bios setup and change the clock multiplier to the correct settings for the 1.2 .
Save and exit.
reboot and you should see your correct cpu speed.
