well, sort of... I had to use an older processor to make it work, but
work it does! I would like to ask a question. My processor (the one
that is now dead) was an AthlonXP 3000 (333mhz), never overclocked. I
was using a fan/heatsink that was certified up to 3200. What i would
like to know is: how the hell did I lose a processor if I had never
overclocked it, and had a pretty good fan? If it was the Fan/Heatsink,
could someone recommend one for my planned beastly ressurrection*? It
would be nice if i knew what I should look at when buying a
fan/heatsink. NOISE IS NOT AN ISSUE. I can turn up my music louder if
the fan is too loud ;D.

Thx N Adv

*Planned Beastly ressurrection consists of the following: 1. a really
good fan/heatsink (noise is not an issue, but price is) 2. an AMD
AthlonXP 3200 with 400MHZ FSB. and all of my old system specs.
