Two years ago, I purchased a Celeron 366 A system. I did some research at
that time to ensure that I had it built with components that could be
upgraded. Specifically, I wanted to know I could throw in a new Processor
when the time came. It has....

I also knew that I would have to do some research when I purchased the new
Processor and that's starting here with the fine group at PCBuild.

I asked at the time that a Motherboard with the capacity to handle up to a
PIII be installed. The Motherboard is a 440 BX by ASUS.

I have my eye on an Intel Celeron 700 PGA 128K/66 (I'm a cheapskate
and  have no need for Top Of The Line).

Does anyone see any conflict with the Motherboard I have? I am not
knowledgeable enough to know what specs you might need of the Motherboard
but can find whatever you need in the manual.

My second question is more of a simple "How do I do It" matter. Once
I  purchase the new Processor, what exactly does one do to install it? Is
it a simple clip such as with RAM?

  Thanks in advance for your ideas.
