  A bit offtopic but you people are a great source of information....

  Again, back to the old Server 1000, now up and running perfectly.

  I found a Slot 1 266 PII processor in my collection of junk and deceided
  to fit it to the spare slot on the main processor board.

  Although it was detected it was ignored by BIOS, came up with TEST FAIL.

  One of the network guys at work told me that it must be a special
  "Digital (tm)" processor.

  Is this true, where processors "serialised" so as they only worked
  in Propritery motherboards? or a more sinister reason, ie, dead processor?

  Thanks for your time.

  Mark
