    OK 2 things come to mind right off
    1: is ther a jumper on the board which needs moving? like 100/133/166/200
    2: Also make sure its not the ram speed you are moving. Be sure it is the FSB

    Another thing you may have to reset the bios and then let it auto detect the new chip and then reset your other settings.

    Just an idea - is there any chance that you have purchased a re-badged CPU that is really a 2500+? Was it a retail CPU? Can you return it?

    It was common (more so than now) some time ago to recieve CPU's that were "altered" to appear as a faster CPU than they really are, with the CPU failing the FSB test this could be a possibility.

    Also - how is your HSF situation? Any chance that you are overheating? The faster speed, the more heat generated (on same core.) This does not exactly corrospond to your error message, but may also be an issue.
    Death is lighter than a feather - duty heavier than a mountian.

    The answer to your question is: 00110100 00110010
