I've just been trying to phone Ebuyer to find this out but they gave me absolute no help whatsoever.
You see I've discovered that this motherboard in the link in this topic apparently doesnt like the CPU I want to put in and that according to the user reviews, people have had to buy a celeron processor, bang it in there, boot the machine, update the firmware, and then put the new P4 CPU in, as putting it in directly it wont boot up.

So do you think that the board has this updated firmware now ?
I dont want to go and buy another processor.
This is driving me mad.
