    Ok so this website has the following for the processor specs:
    Socket A
    Supports AMD Athlon CPU up to 1.4G+
    Supports AMD Duron CPU 900Mhz+

    does that mean a 1.8Ghz Duron would work in that mobo? Because of the + after 900Mhz, so long as it is Socket A and the 266 FSB. Shuttle's webpage has any athlon or duron processor with 200/266Mhz FSB. So I'm confused as to the maximum the board can handle.

    site above info came from.

    It's in the shop, the processor went out, I found a replacement of the same processor, however it is on backorder, and they won't tell us when it will be in stock. So I need to find a new processor...

    A 1.8 duron should be fine!
