System keeps rebooting

martyc45 · 2004-02-17 19:32:17

After changing my cpu P4 1.5GHz 400 fsb 256KB L2 cache to a P4 2GHz 400fsb 512KB L2 cache , it just keeps rebooting, the motherboard is a MSI 845 ULtra and supports up to a 2.6GHz 400fsb . anybody got any ideas or is it just the obvious. I bought the chip second hand off Ebay for 55 euro .
