The Celeron is PPGA while the Coppermine is FCPGA. You will most likely need an adapter.

Yes, they do. Just have a look at 'Tom´s Hardware' page, there they have a simple solution (2 soldering bridges).

 

Works fine for a customer of mine

 

Have fun

Oh,

 

Ok, if you mess with soldering some pins it will work. Just buy the right MB. But the answer is still no, to all the people who don't want to **** with there system in that way.
