The new cpu does not work with your MB even you update the BIOS. Because the MB has 915GL chipset, and the new cpu only can work with at least 945 Chipset MB.

True, the 910/915 only supports single core processors. You can try getting a Pentium 4 with Hyperthreading, almost as good as a Pentium D.
