There is a thermal diode underneath the CPU socket, please slightly push the CPU on to its socket without applying excessive force. Also make sure there is no gap between the CPU and socket. Then lower the socket-lever all the way down to its horizontal position and locket it to secure the CPU in place.

For AMD Turion64 to run normally, please download & install AMD Turion64 CPU driver from AMD website first. Windows XP differentiates between a processor's current speed and its maximum speed. In computers that use processor-throttling technology (such as the Intel SpeedStep or AMD PowerNow! technology), the processor's current speed may be different from its maximum speed. The processor's speed may be reduced to conserve battery life. If Windows XP queries the processor to determine its maximum speed while the processor is in a throttled (or reduced-speed) state, Windows XP reports a processor speed that is lower than the processor's actual maximum speed. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316965
