Hi Everyone,
Is anybody knows upgrading Chicony MP989 CPU from PII MMC2 to PIII MMC2?
or is is possible? I have the bios of MP999 which is very similar to MP989. There, with modbin I saw same bios string with PIII support. I have also have information from intel:
MMC-2 Package
The Mobile Module Cartridge 2 (MMC-2) package has a mobile Pentium® III processor and the host bridge system controller (consisting of the processor bus controller, memory controller and PCI bus controller) on a small circuit. It connects to the system via a 400-pin connector. On the MMC-2 package, the thermal transfer plate (TTP) provides heat dissipation from the processor and host bridge system controller
So, it does not need fsb arragement am I right?
Or should I upgrade to a Celeron 433 or PIII650?
Please help me?
