i emailed tech support at my motherboard manufacturer (Jetway) and
got this rather strange reply...

Now I've been using my current CPU and m/b for over 2 years without
any problem.  The CPU is an Intel P4 2.4ghz which I believe needs a
533mhz system bus, all of which my mobo manual says it supports.  So
what's a prescott???
