AMD Mobile and desktop PC problems

I'm having trouble with a Mobile 2400+ (Barton core) I bought. I'm running it in a Abit VA-10 mATX board (via KM400 chipset). It will POST, but it doesn't recognize the CPU. This is what it reads:

Main Processor: Unknown CPU Type 606 MHz.

Anyone had similar problems with the Mobile Athlons or know how to get it to recognize?
 
thats perfectly normal, mobiles were never intended for desktop motherboards. you just have to manually set all the multipler and FSB settings.
 
Ah...well then, I may be screwed. The VA-10 appears to have no settings in the BIOS to increase or decrease the multiplier. For that matter, doesn't even list it.
