Elite Mobo/Celeron D335 CPU compatibility issue: Advice Please :)

Hi,

Thanks for all your help in my recent post 'Urgent PC advice needed please :( '

I returned the mobo and they contacted me saying that it was tested and was perfect! So now Im really stuck as to what to do next. If the mobo is fine could it be the CPU thats dodgy or could the CPU not be compatible with the mobo (when it should be)

Im getting really annoyed with this bloody PC now :(

Any advice would help :)

Please be more specific with your topics.

Get your other components tested.

lock this thread NOW

Learn to make titles

Ive changed the title now, is this better? I was asking for more help for a problem I had explained in a previous posting (of the same name)

http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=1182

I now know that the problem is with the mobo & CPU not being compatible (the Elite board doesnt support 'Prescott' CPU's and the Celeron D335 is a Prescott)

Sorry about the lame title everyone.
