Got this at the local pawn shop
Sempron 3000
40GB HD
256MB RAM (soon +1GB)
DVD combo drive
Came with a CRT and some perippherals. I don
t think it was a bad buy for $100.
Anyone have any Athlon XPs?

What kind of CPU socket?
|

I think it's a socket A (462)

No Athlon XP will work in that box. You need a faster Sempron or an Athlon64.

socket A is a processor socket that was used during the Athlon XP/Duron/Sempron. So yes, and Athlon XP Will work.
I had a socket 462 machine, and I started with a Duron, then a Sempron, and finally an Athlon 3200+ and it was a grand machine. I think you paid too much for it. Pawn shops are worthless for finding good deals. That machine can be had off of craigslist for maybe $60 tops

No;
Socket 462 (or Socket A) - newer AMD Athlon, Athlon XP, and Duron processors
Socket 754 - lower end AMD Athlon 64 with single-channel memory support
Socket 939 - AMD Athlon 64 and AMD Athlon FX with dual-channel memory support
Socket 940 - AMD Opteron and early AMD Athlon FX processors

I probably paid too much for it but oh well...
I have found some smokin' good deals at the pawn shop here though... Like a rare rotel remote that I made $50 profit off of.
