| Will an old Celeron run in a CUSL2-C? I was trying to get an old machine running (which had a dead mobo) with a spare CUSL2-C. The cpu is an old Celeron - I think a 300. Would you expect it to work? As it is, I don't even get any bios beeps and as I know the mobo works I can only assume it doesn't like the cpu. Am I right? If so, whats the cheapest current Celeron which will go in this board? 733? Thanks Steve |

| Hi Rebellion, The CUSl2-C only supports FC PGA Celerons...it will not support any other architecture...

| Miles... I'm not an expert on this! The Celeron I've got fits in the socket - does this mean it's an FC PGA? S |

| Same number of pins on the PPGA and FC-PGA, although the pin-outs are apparently different. CUSL2 will run PPGA (<=533) and FC-PGA.. CUSL2-C is FC-PGA only. I believe it has to do with power requirements. The Celeron (PPGA) and Celeron II (FC-PGA) both come in 533 Mhz versions. Make sure you get the right one. ddd |

| Thanks ddd, I guess the one I've got is PPGA not FC PGA which probably accounts for why nothing happens. S |

| Know how you feel. Was going to plop the old 400 in this one after I upgrade.. but for the price of a low end Celeron II (US$45).. why bother. Maybe I can find a good LX board cheap somewhere? ddd |
