Abit BH6 Slotkey problem

I wanted to upgrade an old computer I had laying around. Its a BH6 (rev 1.0) with a p2-400 in it. I decided to upgrade to a celeron 700, but just put in a 633 and will overclock. I have an old Abit Slot 1 converter that I bought a long time back when they first came out (for some reason). This could possibly be the problem.

So I get the celeron, flash the bios to SS. My 400 works fine but when I put in the 633 using the slotkey, nothing happens. It never boots up. The CPU gets hot, but it never even gets to the start up screen.

Any ideas what this could be? Is the slotkey bad? I know the processor works because where I bought it, they show you that it does (the test it for you in front of you).

Any ideas what this could be?

Thanks in advance,

Joe
 
Yeah u'll need a new slocket, assuming the old one is like slocket 1, the 700/633 are fc-pgas so you'll need one with the fc-pga support..
 
You might want to make sure that the BH6 board will allow the lower voltages of the Celeron2. I think it was 1.5 volts. Some slockets allow you to set the lower voltages.
 
I have a BH6 running a celey 600 on a abit slocket!!! @ 9x112fsb
ss bios, slocket fsb and voltage set to auto. Bios detects correct voltage(1.7v), multiplier, and bus speed.
