Why, at bootup is the following message dispalyed: AMD Hammer Family Processor - Model Unknown.

I am running Windows XP Pro. On a Asus A8N-SLI Delux Motherboard, Socket 939 with One Gig of Memory. The processor is AMD 4600+ Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core.

I agree with 'B-Film'. One question though, do you have the driver disk that came with the motherboard? it might help. But I believe you'll still have to 'flash' the BIOS. Go to the Asus Support web site and check up BIOS up-dates for that board with that CPU installed. They should be able to help you.

make sure you update forceware drivers that are of a high enough release number for the particular bios revision you are installing.

For instance chipset 665 for bios 1010 .

its important I think its always in RED :)
