Hi Tim,
As far as I know, all Pentium chip are pack with the same package, therefore
I don't understand what you mean?
Instead of trying to figure out what socket 5 or 7, you can take a look on
the socket itself.
If the "holes" are in square matrix, they are most likely 486.
If the "holes" are in diamond matrix, they are Pentium (most likely).
Be careful that the new FC-PGA is looking the same as the "Pentium" socket
and never ever plug one into it, your green note will fly away.
Please correct me if I make any mistakes.
Bye.
Dennis/SG

I was given three Pentium MoBs the other day. <G> Two are great... but the third I'm having a small problem. It does not have a CPU. The markings say that I can put a 50, 66, or 75 mhz CPU on it. But I have only a 133 mhz CPU. My question is can I run this CPU on this MoB? Also if so, which setting should I use, ie 50, 66, or 75?
Is the MB a socket 5 or socket 7. I had an old P66(?) with a socket 5 and a newer pentium chip wouldn't fit the older socket. (It was a while ago and it may have been a 486/66, can anyone confirm this?)
