Thank you very much Catweazle/Coconut Monkey. You have saved me much time searching for a forum where somebody will actually be bothered to answer my problem.
I think I would be better off selling the processor. I shouldn't have too many problems shifting one of this quality should I?
What's keeping you from losing that motherboard?
I mean, you shouldn't have any problem at all selling that chip, but why not just move up in performance, and get a better motherboard? If your system boots right now, use it, and in the meantime, save up and get a better motherboard that supports the 800mhz FSB. Then, sell that old board.
