A friend has a HX motherboard and had a Intel P75 chip on it.. Worked fine..
He wanted to upgrade it to a P233 MMX
but the board didn't like the chip, so he swapped it for a P200MMX which the
store said should work.  We tried every way to get it to work, wouldn't even
boot up.  here's what the book says:

    *
    The motherboard is a 4-layer, 2/3 baby AT size high-performance
mainboard.
    It includes Intel 82430HX system chipset Winbond W83877 Super 1/0
controller.

    1.1  GENERAL SPECIFICATION

    Processor

    * Intel Pentium P54C series - P54C, P55C (MMX)

    * Cyrix 6x86/6x86L series

    * AMD-K5/K6 series

    * The mainboard can run with following speeds:

       75, 90, 100, 110, 120, 133, 150, 166, 200 and 233 MHz

    Chipset

    Intel 82439HX (Intel 82430HX System Controller)
    Intel 8237 1 SB (PCI ISA IDE Xcelerator)
    Winbond W83877 (Super 1/0 Controller)

    Cache Size

    * Sychronized Pipelined Burst Mode SRAM to achieve the high Pentium
      system performance.
    * Cache size is 0/256/512KB.


Now does this say it will run a P200MMX? If not, what's the fastest I can
stick in there? According to the book, I should be able to put a P200 in.
Any ideas?  Thanks
