CPU Clips

[Paul Masley]

Hey, I am new to this forum. I need a little help. I am trying to resurrect an old computer to use as a server. The old box is a 440BX with a PII350. I have a PIII800 which will work, however I cannot locate the retaining clips for the cpu. Anybody have any ideas where I can find them. Thanks...

Is it slot or socket? If socket, any basic heatsink should come with mounting hardware that will work with socket 370/A. If it is a slot (you would need those little black clippies) then I or another member would be more than willing to mail you some at little to no cost. PM me.

Welcome to the forums!

You can use it without the Slot 1 clips, just remember to remove the processor before you move it.

I *think* I saw some on ebay a couple of years ago (I was looking for some, but I didn't buy any), so you might try looking there.
