Re: Dual Core CPU on Abit NI8-Board

Hello again!

After contacting the Abit-Support I know, what is my problem...

My motherboard does not support FSB800-CPUs with less then 3,0GHz :-(
http://www.abit.com.tw/cpu_support/intel-pd-8xx.htm

So, now I have an expensive motherboard and an expensive 2,8 GHz cpu that 
won't work correctly together - funny, isn't it :-/
The next thing I'll do is to buy a 3,0GHz CPU and hope that this will work 
better...

Thank you very much for your support!!!

Greetings
Frank
