If you have a Celeron CPU, or an older Pentium II that doesn't utilize the 100MHz front side bus speed, then you're out of luck with all i820 mainboards as they don't support the older Intel product line.

For kicks we tried fooling with some 66MHz CPUs in the GA-6CX, as we did previously with the Intel VC820 mainboard and got the same result of no power up/no boot up occurred as before.

When they say no 66MHz CPU support they mean it, folks.
