Big Problem after CPU upgrade!

[Techx4]

I have an Abit IC7 which had a p4 2.4 in it and just put in a new p4 3.2ghz chip, once i booted i went into bios, and changed my fsb freq back to 200 since i was oc'ing the 2.4 to 2.8. Once I chose the option to save settings and exit the bios screen just freezes up. Cant type, cant exit/save, or anything. So I reset the CMOS, reboot and go back into bios, didnt make any changes but went to save and again it freezes. Then after I do a forced reboot I get this message:

"CPU is unworkable or has been changed please recheck - CPU soft menu"

when I go back into bios the brand reads as it should 3.20 p4. But the Freq. reads as 1.60Ghz?! Anyone know whats going on here or how I can fix this?

Thanks

maybe you have to play with some jumpers on the mobo?

Hrm well according to Abit the IC7 doesn't support the P4 3.2 cpu? at least thats what I get when I go to their site http://www2.abit.com.tw/abitweb/webjsp/test_report/IC7/IC7-01.php

Hope I'm wrong........

Yeah and my 2.4c said 1.6ghz when hyper-threading wasnt enabled in the bios...

Your board may require a BIOS flash to use your chip. Abit IC7 BIOS update history.
