Why didn't I think of going to Intel's website... D'Oh...
Not that it helped much. I did get some things for you to look into.

This is a quick list of features on the Pentium D processor. It says
that the 820 does not support Speedstep.
http://www.intel.com/products/processor/pentium_d/index.htm

This Dell Dimension 9150 Spec sheet, says that it supports "Up To" an
840...
http://www1.us.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/dimen_9150?c=us&cs=555&l=en&s=biz

So that means your Dell has either an 820 (unsupported), 830, or 840
PentiumD processor. I did a search on Intel for the 2.8D, and it is an
820 processor.
http://www.intel.com/products/processor_number/index_view_pd.htm

So it looks like you will have to upgrade to the 3.0ghz for it to work.
Unless that is what the poster in your link was refering to. Support
being added in the Second Quarter for the 820...
