I have an ASUS A7M266 Mobo that has run great thus far with a XP 1500+. I now purchased an XP 2100+ and the machine won't post, beep nothing. I put the old cpu back in and booted right it up. I have tried the CMOS reset to no avail. The machine just will not boot, post or beep with the new processor. So I know its not the mobo or the memory or the power supply. Something is up and I can't figure it out. Could the chip be bad? Oh ya I have the newest bios revision 1007 for this board as well. Any help from you guys would be great. Thanks

I'd be willing to bet that board doesn't support that processor. Get a refund.
