    another Motherboard/ cpu compatibility

    will a p4 cpu /800 work in a motherboard that has 400/533 speeds.
    will the cpu 'slow down' and work in such a motherboard.

    thanks

    I am pretty sure the BIOS on that board will not accept the CPU just on the basis of its CPUID.
    At the source of every error which is blamed on the computer, you will find at least two human errors, including the error of blaming it on the computer.
