    Post 100MHz Cels instead of 100MHz PIII's?

    Can a 440BX motherboard use a 100MHz Celeron?

    No. Those are the celeron FC Not supported on those boards as far as I know.
    Don't even ask why they call me stressball....

    If the BX board will support a coppermine flip chip P3 then it should support the 100MHz FSB Celeron as well. These Celerons are based on the Pentium III core. Most BX boards will not do a mulitplier higher then 8x so 800MHz will probably be your limit. Look into a board such as the Abit BX6 rev2 (slot1, requires adapter) or the Abit BE6 (S370). Both support the Cu mine CPU's with the latest BIOS updates.
    My brain went into standby mode and I can't get it to wake up, is there a BIOS patch for this?
