it's not neccessarily just the slot/socket issue. Remeber there was a
special celery only chipset from Intel (EX??) - it won't take P2's
afaik.

If the board is an LX or BX chipset then it will take P2. Have a look at
the doc's, or else have a look at the big intel chip on the board
closest to the CPU socket.
