OP OP C coreyjames66 Baseband Member Messages 73 Dec 21, 2005 #3 Nope, same processor as yours. Coming out of a bad board.
T talldude123 Banned Messages 7,915 Dec 22, 2005 #4 you should be able to use it but make sure its a celeron D. A normal celeron was based on a pentium 3 chip, and celeron D is based on pentium 4 chip.

OP OP C coreyjames66 Baseband Member Messages 73 Dec 22, 2005 #6 Thanks for the responses. I guess I'm probably better off shelling out the $80 for the new processor. I'm glad I asked! -Corey
