My system is currently running an AMDK6-2 300mhz CPU with 3DNow technology through a FIC VA-503+ motherboard. After perusing FIC's website, I concluded that the version of my board could only handle a 400mhz version of the K6-2. I bought a AMDK6-2 400 that I now have in my possession and have questions about the upgrade.
I have installed many different components in the past (drives, cards, fans, etc.) but I have never touched the CPU. What needs to be done to upgrade? Is it as simple as taking out the old CPU, putting in the new one, and rebooting? I am afraid that I am oblivious to settings or configuration options and I will bring down my system and render it unuseable.
What needs to be done?
Thank you.
