Abit KT7A compatibility

[Guest]

I am getting ready to purchase an ABIY KT7A mobo and wish to use an athlon XP1600 CPU. I have noticed that AMD's web site does not recommend any Abit mobos and am concerned that this combination will not properly function. What's the deal with AMD not recommending Abit?

I have two of those mobo one about 5-7 month old the other just got about 2 weeks ago.
Depending which version you get will it support AMD XP.
Ver. 1.1 Nope. Ver. 1.3 yap, but will need a BIOS update for the XP support. My newer mobo had the 1.3 version and work great. Abits web sight has this info.
