As i said Zing it could happen, but the op has failed to give us any proof and has ignored any request for something anything to say why he thought it was not the correct processor, i have no doubt at the time your bro's happened you could have got the proof "if" you was going to claim a company was completely useless.
anyone can come on to any forum to claim anything, but surely something to back up the claims would help his cause but hey it's been a great read and kept me entertained
