Zida Tomato BXv98-CT motherboard

[chey]

Hi.

I have a motherboard type of Zida Tomato BXv98-CT. I updated its BIOS to 1.07e, whitch means that it can support PPGA Celeron processors. Does this mean that it supports PIII PPGA Celeron CPUs, or what?...

I read that the motherboard PCB1.3 supports PIII 850 (FSB 100) MHz and Celeron 700 (FSB 66) MHz processors. How do I know if my motherboard is PCB1.3 or is it an older one, whitch doesn't support these processors? When starting the system there can be seen only the version of the BIOS (1.07e).

Please help!

Hi and welcome to the forum, there will usually be a printing on the board itself that tells you what the PCB version is. PPGA Celerons are the black ones with silver lid on the centre. They're based on the P2 and come from 300-533MHz.
