Epox says that will work with a BIOS date of 09/19/01
See Appendix D in manual how to update BIOS.
Get BIOS files from WEB site (including manual.)

This board uses extended functions to set the multiplier.
You need the new BIOS...
Be sure to set the Vcore setting to default on JP-6,
or you could burn out the CPU.
(It seems to be a setting for overclockers.)

Good luck. From the manual, it seems the only thing that
could go wrong is that the "CMOS Clear" jumper (JP1)
might be set wrong from the factory... (It happens!)
