Jon,

The NEC ValueMate motherboard is probably a 5v-only board, that is it
accepts only 5v cpus.  You have three choices, maybe...

1. Intel 83 MHz Pentium OverDrive (if your system is shown as
compatible in the list maintained by Intel at www.intel.com)

2. A packaged kit such as Kingston, Evergreen, or Gainberry,
consisting of a 3.3v CPU (IBM/Cyrix 5x86) or 3.45v CPU (AMD
Am5x86-133) and a voltage regulator.

3. Do-it-yourself with a 3.x volt processor and a voltage regulator.
