Default please check - CPU SOFT MENU?

Hi, I have just done a mobo swap with 2 of my comps and I am trying to install windows. But I have a problem,

When I turn the comp on there is an error message in the DOS boot screen that says: "CPU is unworkable or has been changed. Please recheck - CPU SOFT MENU".

well, first of all the CPU had better be workable cuz its freakin new. second of all I say "duh" the 'or has been changed' part of the error.

I have gone into bios and have done the "load fail-safe defaults" thing.... nothing changes

I have gone into the "SoftMenu III Setup" which I think is the 'CPU SOFT MENU' the error was talking about but there is nothing in there I can change or know what to change things to.

My question: What do I do?

FYI:
mobo: ABIT NF7-M
cpu: AMD 1500+
os (as soon as I get past this problem): WinXPproSP1

pre-thanx for your assistance.
