The Intel® LM440LX Motherboard supports Pentium® II processors only at 233, 266, 300, or 333 MHz with 512 KB L2 cache supporting ECC or non-ECC operation. Motherboards with BIOS version 86A supports the Intel® Celeron® processors only at 266 MHz and 300 MHz (but not 300A) when the motherboard contains BIOS version 4L4ML0X0.86A.0014.P06 or later.
Special instructions must be observed when using 333 MHz Pentium II processors. The Intel LM440LX Motherboard that uses BIOS version 86C does not support the 333 MHz Pentium Pentium II processor or Intel Celeron processors.
Warning: Processors not specifically listed by type and rated speed may have requirements that are not supported by the motherboard's design. Use of unsupported processors may result in improper operation, damage to the motherboard or processor, or reduced product life.

Contact your system provider for any bus mastering drivers specific to your configuration. Additional Intel® Bus Master IDE information can be found on the developer.intel.com site.
Processors Supported
The Intel LM440LX Motherboard with BIOS version 86A supports Pentium II processors at 233, 266, 300, or 333 MHz and Intel® Celeron® processors at 266 and 300 MHz. See the processors supported document. The Intel LM440LX Motherboard with BIOS version 86C does not support the 333 MHz Pentium II processor or Celeron processors.
Configuration Jumper
A single jumper enables the Intel LM440LX Motherboard's configuration mode. All options, including processor speed selection, are then available through the BIOS setup screens, which are documented in the Technical Product Specification.
1-3-3-1 Beep Code
A 1-3-3-1 beep code and failure of your system to boot indicates a problem with the DIMM memory being used. See the Frequently Asked Questions on developer.intel.com and try using memory listed on the tested memory list.
Will my ATA-66 Hard Drive Work on the Intel LM440LX Motherboard?
The IDE controller integrated into the Intel LM440LX Motherboard supports Ultra DMA modes 0,1, and 2. Ultra DMA mode 2, also known as ATA-33 or Ultra DMA 33, is the highest speed transfer mode supported by the Intel LM440LX Motherboard. The motherboard hardware cannot support the maximum transfer rate of the ATA-66 drives. A drive that complies with the ATA-66 specification will run timings up to Ultra ATA-33 on the Intel LM440LX Motherboard. Please refer to the Technical Product Specification and the Motherboard Specification Update for more complete details on the various transfer modes.
For technical support, contact your place of purchase -- which will have the most current information about your specific product or configuration. You also can check the Intel FAQ for that product.
Retention Mechanism:
To integrate an Intel Celeron processor on the motherboard, a Single Edge Processor Package (SEPP) retention mechanism is used. The retention mechanism must be compatible with metal fasteners.
The motherboard has a Retention Mechanism Attach Mount (RMAM) with metal fasteners. The holes in the motherboard are .140" (.35560 cm) and are only compatible with the metal fastener SEPP retention mechanism. Plastic Push Pin fasteners made for .159" (.40386 cm) motherboard holes will not work with the holes on the motherboard.
Heatsink:
There are two versions of heatsink supports depending on whether the heatsink solution is passive or active (with fan). Passive heatsink supports are pre-installed on the motherboard. The motherboard also requires a heatsink support top bar. If you would like to use an active heatsink solution, you will need to remove the bottom passive heatsink support from the motherboard.
Refer to the LM440LX Motherboard technical product specification.
