A Celleron CPU?  Yep, you made a mistake.  You got a chip that performs
worse than Intel's regular Pentium 233 with no cache, or less cache, and a
worse math unit than a regular Pentium II that wouldn't have cost you much
if any more.  You would have done far better to have bought the even cheaper
AMD K6 CPU in a clock speed equal to or faster than 300MHz.  Lose that
Celleron and get a real CPU.  Intel ought to be ashamed for pushing that
garbage on people and get them to believe how great it is based on their
overblown reputation.  Check out all the PC magazines from about March of
1998 and later to see all the nasty things they have to saya about the
Celleron.
