The best CPU upgrade it will support is a Celeron PPGA (non-coppermine) 533MHz, with a slotket adapter. You might need a newer BIOS revison to support the Celeron, available here: http://www.abios.com/atend-bios.html It might be more cost-effective to replace the whole motherbaord too, with something supporting a 1GHz Celeron. These socket 370 motherboards can be found relatively cheap these days, and unlike a new Athlon or P4 processor and motherboard, you likely wouldn't need a new power supply. > >We'd be very grateful for any advice. > >Regards >Ewa Dave __________________________ Please Reply to Newsgroup,
