Well this is a mistake made by the Biostar website. Both socket AM2 and socket 940 use 940 pins, but they have different names for a reason. The motherboard in question is socket AM2, and it is incorrectly named on the Biostar website. You can tell by the list of processors that the site lists as compatible with it, those processors are compatible with socket AM2, not 940.
