I have lost the manual to my biostar M6TWC motherboard and was just wondering what is the highest processor i can put in it as its running on a intel celeron at the moment many thanks daniel

go to the intel website and search for it

Biostar Support > P4M90-M7A > Main Support page,

http://www.biostar-usa.com/mbdetails.asp?model=K8M80-M7A

Uses a Socket 754 processor socket.

How pray-tell are you using an Intel processor that uses an LGA 775 processor socket?

You aren't.
What is the motherboard manufacturer name, and model number?
Post back in a Comment.

However if we are to use the Biostar P4M90-M7A for an example;

Biostar main support page above;
Top right; small subheading -> Support
Click on the blue, (Purple?) subheading -> CPU Support

As for the motherboard in question that uses the Intel Pentium Dual Core E2200, find out what the motherboard chipset is, then you will know what CPU's are supported.

(You know now that the processor socket is an LGA 775)

Use CPU-Z from CPUID.com (TINY program, and Free),

The Northbridge chip of the motherboard chipset, handles the Processor. (Plus Ram Memory, and HIGH-speed graphics),

and download the motherboard manual. It gives you all the information you require.

According to these specs 500 Mhz and up

Your motherboard supports a slot A Athlon.

The fastest looks like up to 1Ghz as according to CPU World:

Hope this info answers your questions. Feel free to comment if you need further info from me.

Rate me please when you get the chance.

Your motherboard is for a AMD processor not Intel. You need a motherboard for a Intel processor before you can proceed.They are so different. Core Duo chips don't even use pins.

Hi aventae, the P4SXQ motherboard will only support Intel Pentium 4 or Intel Celeron processors 400MHz CPU's.
Biostar's link for the P4SXQ MB.
