Your new mother board should auto detect what proceser is plugged in, sometimes in the BIOS this feature can be turned off or turned to manual so the best thing is to boot the pc up and go into the BIOS and look to see if there is anything to do with the processor. Then try and google a manual.
Just make sure your 100% sure the motherboard you've bought supports the processor you have. HTH |

Well... as far as I know, on some mother boards at least, you have to set jumpers to tell it what clock speed your processors are running at.
Shrug. Did you get a manual thing with the board? Have a look and see if you notice something along those lines. |
