Hi All - I need a Celereon motherboard to replace the dead one in an IBM Netvista. This one has a PGA370 socket and is currently using a Celeron 1Ghz. The board is a small ATX form factor with these dimentions (7.5x9 inches / 19x23 mm). Many of the caps on this one are swelled and the memory controller is dead from my diags. I just need anything that will work in this unit to get it back up and running. Looking for something cheap since it is an older machine. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Greg

Thanks for the quick info, I am already looking. Can I stick this Celeron 370 1Ghz into a Socket 478 that supports the newer Celeron, or do I need to stick with a MB with the 370 only.

Thanks,
Greg

you have to stick with the 370 only. There's no adapter or way of making a 370 chip work in a S478 board.

it will only fit 370 boards or slot 1 boards with an adapter, only adapters i know of are tualatin to non-tualatin, and slot 1 to 370 adapters....

Send me the board, for $50 I'll replace all the dead caps and return it.
