I don't think an official bios is out yet, suporting the sempron processors!
If it's not, i will probably come out soon!

But like Bluetooth said, youe system will post and boot, but at the post screen it will show up "unknown CPu type" like it happens on the Mobile chips!!

Semprons 2800+ and below are simply renamed 256K cache, Thorougbred Core, Athlon XPs. The Sempron 2800+ (2.0ghz) is the old XP 2400+ with a FSB of 166mhz.

The Sempron 3100+ is a 256K cache Athlon 64, it uses a Socket 754 motherboard.

Hmm.. that's stupid.
On the abit website, they have released a new BIOS for most of the boards that supports new AMD Sempron CPUs... however, they have not released a BIOS for the NF7-S v2.0.

However, yes, the original NF7 (non S) can support Sempron officially now.

edit: The NF7/NF7-S rev 1.x boards support Sempron... the NF7/NF7-S Rev2.0 does NOT support Sempron
