I would guess that there's a physical flaw in your chip. Like charliex said check the pins on it and see if one's bent or too big or something. If it's communicable to other machines don't risk putting in anything else until you figure out the problem. But it sounds like there's something wrong with the chip and when you put it in another machine it's scratching, warping, forcing open some connection to the processor.
Do like billege says and get a new processor and use the old one as jewelry, probably the safest application for it.
