Well after trying this the first time I'm afraid I blew my mobo..I was going to upgrade my CPU from a P4 2.8 to a P4 3.0 HT...but all I did was remove my 2.8 processor, and put the 3.0 HT in..it fit in perfectly...but with the 3.0..I used the same heatsink and fan that I had on the 2.8....because this 3.0 was from a machine I just bought for parts and noticed the processor was still good because I ran it in another machine with no problems at all. The fan and heatsink that was on the 3.0 look similar to the one I originally have..When doing an upgrade...do you have to replace heatsink and fan???
(my mobo does support HT, thankfully it was still under warranty when this happened so it's up and running again)
