make sure you get a socket 478 pentium 4, and not a socket 775. Also make sure you have the latest bios for that board that supports the pentium 4's:

go to the manufactuer's website tech support. It will tell you the max cpu the board should take. Even though the slot is the same, the architecture may not allow it on the cpu.
