Worked great, I clocked it at 33 and as a "Enhanced AMD Dx4" and I'm in X
right now...haven't tried any heavy compiling but it seems that trick
worked.  One thing I've noticed is that the cpu runs VERY cool and
probably wouldn't need a fan...but I'll throw it on just in case :>

Thanks much,
Rory Imua Lampert
