Either the board can't identify it, or Fry's gave you the wrong CPU. I wonder
which one is correct :)

> Does anyone have any experience w/ AMD processors? I have purchased the

> XP 1800+" in the system BIOS and OS. I even dl the amdcpuid.exe file,
> which shows the same thing as the OS/BIOS. Even the cpuinfo.exe file
> shows the same thing. Both file are fm AMD's web site.
