When was the first time you plucked up the courage to replace your first cpu ?.
My first time was replacing a cyrix MII 300 for a AMD K2-450.
After nervously removing/installing the heatsink and cpu i came to the jumper settings.
Ok set multiplier to 4.5 (highest it would go was 5)no problem.Next set fsb to 100
my fsb would only go to 75mhz 
(hadn't checked this in my total noobness).
Totally gutted and in a strop i left it,not bothering to put the old chip back in and went around me mates.
To cut along story short he told me he had heard that the K2-450 would set
the mutiplier to 6 if i put the jumper on 2 therefore giving me 6* 75= 450
yeah right.
Anyway back home i went to try it with not much hope.
After setting jumpers and putting all back together,with fingers crossed i nervously switched on WHOOPEEEEE bios came up showing all was fine it worked
