Symptoms

If the Hyper-V role is enabled in any of the products that are listed in the "Applies to"section, the CPU Frequency speed value that is displayed in Task Manager is not the current speed, as expected. When the Hyper-V Role is not enabled, Task Manager correctly displays the current speed for this value.

Workaround

To work around this issue, use the built-in Performance Monitor tool (perfmon.exe), and add the "\Hyper-V Hypervisor Logical Processor\Frequency" performance counter.
