Yeah you definitely need a different Intel chipset for 4way. I think it was the 82450 or something like that. For 8way, it believe it was Profusion. Processor families were basically slot1 and slot2, different pinout, connector power requirements etc. That's all changing however with Willamette, Foster, Itanium etc. In any event, Intel's server chipsets have huge holes in their roadmaps. That's why they went with ServerWorks. MEATHEAD
