I would guess that your motherboard simply doesn't know what to do with your new CPU. Manufacturers like Compaq use semi-proprietary motherboards that maybe only work for a handful of upgrades before they're totally useless and obsolete.

I seriously doubt that these options are in your BIOS, but have you checked to see if your chip is running at the right multiplier and Front Side Bus? It could be that those settings are running at the same values as your older chip thus, running slower.

My guess: your motherboard is just too old/proprietary. You did your BIOS updates and it still doesn't work.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
