Installing new cpu on Thinkpad 390e

[adonisv]

Hi,
I recently bought a P2 400mhz cpu to replace the 333mhz cpu that came with the Thinkpad 390e. They have the same form factor, except that the heatsink for the 400mhz is originally bigger and can't fit on 390e (it was made for the 600e). Has someone done this or is there any problems forthcomming associated to what I'm about to do?
Thanks

I would try the smaller sink from the 333 on the 400. These CPU's are very durable so if it does overheat, it will probably lock the system before any damage is done.
