Default System hung, need help!!

I just recently replaced my 1.8 with 2.4
The system always hung during first boot. It says the cpu setting is incorrect. All I need to do is reboot without changing anything and then it works. Anyone know what's wrong?? I really appreciate your help.

First of all, Welcome to Pimprig!

Second of all remember when asking a question the more info the better......

Sound like you need to update your BIOS to support the latest proccesoor

Latest BIOS can be found HERE

And Instructions if you need them can be found HERE

Give this a try and let us know if it works

Again Welcome to Pimprig!!

Roger - the Goat has you on this, if your BIOS thinks that your running your chip faster then it's rated and if there is a setting called "Speed Error Hold" or something similar, then it can hang like this. The updated BIOS should properly detect your CPU, plus, if you have a feature in your BIOS like this one above, turn it off anyway, you don't need it, it's for resellers and system manufactures so they can protect there waranties from screw-ups.
