I have a crappy NetVista A21i (2257 72u) and I need to replace the processor... its my secondary computer and I would like to keep it in proper running condition. It shuts down a lot and I've tried looking for the proper processor but I can't find anything compatible for this thing... Anyone know what type of processor is needed and a site I could possibly get such old computer parts from? I think its a socket 370 processor rated for 950mhz - 1ghz but its intel celeron... Thanks in advance for any and all info/help.
check this link as might be able to goto 1.3ghz. http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-41035
tommyl, remember not everybody has a top of the line system as i worked on a custumer's p2-233 this morning doing a memory upgrade. customer won't be able to replace system til summer if finances allow her.
Yea I got a new AMD coming soon... a custom one. But this one is for my parents and they can hardly check their emails without supervision so I want it to be in decent working order... also if I can get a cheap, possibly used motherboard-memory-cpu to replace this I'd be willing to do that as well.
