so will i have to reinstall the operating system(win2000 server) and windows xp profesional ?
my mobo alltough supports the upgrade.

You shouldn't have to reinstall the OP/SYS just clear the CMOS, and reset the CMOS setup.



Details, Details, Its all in the Details, If you need help, Don't leave out the Details.

You shouldn't have to do a thing, or even clear BIOS settings. Just plug it in and instantly have a faster computer.

Here's the rules:

1.) The PIII 1.4 is a Tualatin CPU, your board needs to be a late revision PIII board to support it.
2.) The earlier Coppermine PIII 1.13 was recalled by Intel, therefor in all likelyhood you have a Tualatin core processor, and therefore a board that will support the 1.4
3.) Processor speed has nothing to do with software configuration, the board will detect the new CPU and must run it at the proper speed, with no changes in software.
4.) I'm a refurbisher, been there, done that, over 1000 times. No other advice is needed or would be desired at this point. Just reread #1 and #2.

One tip... if you're using Windows with 1 GB of memory, you should be using Windows 2000 or Windows XP, since Win 9x doesn't do a good job of managing large memory.
