I have a PIII 600 and wonder if it will run in a PII motherboard @300mhz untill I can find another board.

188859 2003-11-03 03:16:00 do u have a pentium2 processor? use that until u get the new board i say Megaman (344)
188860 2003-11-03 03:20:00 Yeah I have a pII cpu, in use now. rmcb (164)
188861 2003-11-03 03:21:00 No, different CPU sockets sorry. Pheonix (280)
188862 2003-11-03 03:22:00 yes and no. depends on if the motherboard supports it or not. check the mobo makers web site. you can get slot converters if need be. tweak'e (174)
188863 2003-11-03 03:49:00 Or a hammer. :D Anything can be "precision fitted" with a big enough hammer. Graham L (2)
188864 2003-11-03 05:18:00 And when using a hammer on a 'delicate' job like that, make sure you hit hard once -- too many people fall into the trap of trying to hit too softly too often. ;\ Chemical Ali (118)
188865 2003-11-03 05:35:00 or you can hit it so hard that you take the new p3 back to the shop and say, "I tried to put the processor in but it wouldn't fit."


(i'd laugh if someone caught this on tape of some on actually did it!)
