If the heatsink isn't installed properly, sure that's
possible.  Otherwise, it's doubtful as a Tualatin at stock
speed and voltage is VERY easy to keep cool relative to any
more modern CPU- a cheap and small $1 heatsink could do it
in most cases.  However, if you can determine the vcore
currently used, (or at least double-check that if possible),
that could be useful.  So long as the heatsink is making
good contact you could also touch-test the 'sink - if it's
not quite hot, it's not overheating.

Hmm.
Depends a lot of what that setting is you're referring to.
If it's memory CAS setting, you should not need that
changed, providing the memory bus is still at same speed as
it was previously, while the old CPU was in use.
Regardless, running memtest86 for a few hours should help
identify memory errors- and only a moderate level of errors
should not prevent the system from turning on, beginning to
POST... though it could certainly bluescreen it later.
