Hi ,
I've recently purchased the MOBO - https://paytm.com/shop/p/gsonic-mother-board-lga-775-atx-ddr2-intel-945-COMGSONIC-MOTHETECH2751284012B2C

- which says compatible with Pentium D processor.

I've the Pentium D 805 processor and RAM is Transcend DDR2 800 DIMM. When I connect everything I get the error on the screen as The max tdp thermal design power of cpu is 95w over .

The same things were working on my old mobo - http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3485#ov

By the configurations it looks all are compatible then why the error?

Is it that my cpu fan isn't working properly or not cooling down the cpu so it reaches the max temperature?
