P4C800E-Deluxe and P4 3.2Ghz cpu upgrade

I just received my RMA'd CPU P4-3.20E GHz (800 FSB, L2 cache:1MB, HT,
90nm). Couldn't get any video output on bootup even with the bios version
1017 and 1019. I had to put in a Celeron 1.8 just to boot up and flash the
bios, now at version 1021.

I'm ready to install my second P4 3.2E GHZ and was wondering if it will work
with the new bios 1021? Asus website support page lists just bios version
1017.

The cpusupport web page lists the minimum BIOS version. Any
version greater than the one listed should work.
