2200+xp win98 compliant ?

[imation]

Hey guys, just have a friend which wants to upgrade to a 2200+xp athlon.

I am curious however, can his current os (microsoft windows 98 4.10, Build 1998) support this processor ? or is there an update needed, or am i a total dumbass for asking this?

Ive suggested a bios update which will atleast let his mobo accept this cpu.

Regards,
imation

...why wouldn't it.. Yes, it will work just fine.

NO problem with the OS at all..it will support it and no bios upgrades needed...doesnt' depend on the bios.

Hell, just run Windows 1.0 or DOS on that thing - as mentioned, OS doesn't really matter.

512 MB is the max. RAM you can have under Win98/ME, so be sure to check that as well.

I know there are ram limits for os's etc, just wasnt sure about processor limits..




thanks for your help guys!
