Frye's had a MB with a 2500+ the other day for $89. last week they had the
same board with a Sempron 2800+ for $99.
And not long ago they had it with a 2400+ for $79.

I hope you got a board that supports a 200MHz FSB so you can get that
Sempron up to speed.

When you get this installed run cpuid or some such program on it and see
what kind of CPU it reports. If it reports Sempron, then get an older bios
and see what it reports.
or just watch what it reports on post.
Let us all know. (my guess is a 2200+)
