Asus A7M266 and AthalonXP

[Guest]

Anybody know if the Asus A7M266 will accept the new Athalon XP CPU's?

TIA

I belive all Socket A motherboards will accept the Athlon XP processors.

All socket A mobo's will accept the MP (or XP) processor, but only a few will use the processor properly (10 new pins that were just dummy pins on the old athlon processor are now live on the XP processor). Asus built in XP compatibility into its mobo's back in June, so you should be fine.

I have the A7M266, but I did not know that it was released in June.
