Can some tell me the difference between a slot one secc a slot one secc2 CPU as they both have 242 pins and both are not coppermine CPUs
I believe that the main difference is in the casing that encloses the chip. The SECC and SECC2 are clipped onto the motherboard in a different manner. Also SECC heatsinks are not compatible with SECC2 micro-processors. You should have no problems using a SECC2 in a Slot 1 board. I installed a PIII-650 on my AOpen AX6B (440BX) without a hitch.

Umm- the only difference (i think) is that Slot 2 can use the Xeon- whilst the Slot 1 can't. -MP Jesse
secc2 still fits in a Slot 1 (PII, PIII) not a Slot 2 (xeon) slot
SECC2 is not the same as slot 2. Basically it goes like this: Slot1 (SECC1): Older PIIs/PIIIs Slot1 (SECC2): Newer PIIIs (different clipping method, I think) Slot2: PII/PIII Xeon
