> I would think new Main Board as well... But  with the last K6-2 400 systems I built last week, I had 2 CPU's that were bad. Brand new never before used.. Quite strange since I have never found a new CPU to be bad, especially 2 in a row.

It does happen, even CPU is hard to fail under normal condition. I have only seen two bad CPUs, one was a new P3-500, the other was a very old IBM PR-100.
