What mobo and CPU? Did you check to be sure the new CPU is
supported by the old mobo and BIOS? Is there a BIOS update
available?

Most AMD processors are isntalled at 100 MHz on the FSB. You need to up
it to either 133 or 166 depending on which core the CPU is. If you know
it is a Barton, set it to 166. You can download either 7.00 or 7.20
from here to determine what CPU you have:
