Get the manual of your board and figure out how to set the Front Side Bus to 133 MHz (from the 100 MHz your Duron was operating at).

hi thanks for your reply, but that is not the prob, it is running at 133mhz but not running at athlon xp 2200 speed, can't find manual and bios drivers are for duron only as far as I know.

The CPU should run with 1800 MHz, please verify this speed with CPU-Z or similar programs.
