Well if it's any consolation, I run the same board with a K6-2 300
chip, and it works great.  I would guess that yours is a memory problem.
You might not have the board set up for the type of memory you have.
This particular board has jumpers to set up your memory type [speed].

Or you might have fried some memory in the transfer [easy to do].  First
I would check all of the board settings with the manual.  Good luck.

Have a good day!
