(Sorry that this is so long, didn't expect it to be :/)
Hello, I've been really frustrated since I got my new processor which is a 1045t .

My PC model: ET1331G-03w
Motherboard model: MCP61PM-GM
BIOS: AMI P01-A2L
I have a 430watt PSU installed and used to have a 6670 core edition installed. A friend gave me his GeForce GTX 550ti which obviously bottlenecked my computer because of my CPU. So I ended up getting this CPU without really doing research on my mobo since I didn't have knowledge on it, (but now I understand.)
If you looked at my mobo you can see that it can only supports up to 89 watts. Which is just like 4-6 watts off. So I thought about underclocking my CPU but I cannot edit any of my CPU settings in my BIOS. So I'm stuck there. When I try to run AMD OverDrive I can't open it because it says "AMD OverDrive cannot detect supported AMD chipset on this computer." which I don't understand because obviously I have an AMD CPU. Unless it's not meant for it.
And I also believe that my motherboard and CPU aren't compatiple since my mobo recognizes my CPU as this . . .

"Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 130400 Dial- 804MHz"
So then I just gave up running at 804Mhz since it was so damn slow and put back my old CPU which is a AMD Athlon II X2 235e.
Anyways when I put back my old CPU I noticed that my CPU was running at 100 percent (the majority of the time) and when I went to msconfig to just check if my CPU was running on two cores and I see that it was on 1, I tried changing it and I see that only one core is available. I went to Device Manager to see if both of my CPU cores are on there, AND THERE WERE. So now I'm just really confused and now I really need help. Yeah, that's pretty much it. Thanks.
