This all depends on the type of board you have. Many motherboards now will accept "100Mhz to 166Mhz", chips (as 
advertised), but it isn't as easy as just popping in the chip. You may have to set the jumper on the motherboard to the 
correct clock speed. I know that on my Intel Plato Motherboard (Gateway 2000 P5-90), there are 4 jumpers that correspond 
to 4 different speed CPUs (although Gateway claims that this motherboard won't accept anything higher than 90Mhz). You 
would need to look at your documentation and see if the motherboard is compatible. Either that or call tech support.
