I have an Asus A7V and purchased a Duron 1Ghz chip. I put the chip in, start the computer, and it freezes/doesn't move past the BIOS screen after the PCI Devices Listing. Can I fix this problem so that I can start up into Windows XP, or do I need another motherboard that is compatible with the Duron 1Ghz Chip? According to ASUS, the A7V KT133 does support up to 1Ghz. Thanks.

You have a "Morgan" Duron. You need to check the Asus website, and see if the latest BIOS supports it. Then, you need to pop in another, older CPU in order to flash the BIOS.
