Don't be disappointed if it won't. ;)

I had a CDT320 for a short while, and pulled it open to see what was in it. The passive heatsink on your old motherboard's northbridge chipset is much larger than the heasink Toshiba put on the P266MMX chip.

To put it bluntly, it couldn't take the heat off a gnat's ass.

While I don't see you having much success, I do wish you luck trying.

No, no, no....I meant the passive sink on your old desktop's motherboard northbridge.... :p

(I suppose I should have stated that more clearly above...;) )

FWIW...I've got a Sharp Actius A-150 (P223MMX, 64MB system ram, 2MB video).... These machines will play Microsoft golf 2001 quite well. :D Better than DOS games, if you're inclined to video golf.
