Dell 2300 Part numbers. Please help
Hello, :womansad:
I took my PC in for a cleaning a few months ago, now my PC is powering off by itself. From searching on here I found it may be do to loss parts, so I went through and check everything. I have fond that the heat sink is missing a retaining clip and now the other one had broken off too. I was able to find part number 8T065 which is for the plastic retention module. Does anyone know if that will come with the retention clips i need, if not please tell me the part number I would need to order. Also the 800 and extension I found in the forum seem to have changed. Can some one or a Dell moderator tell me the correct number. Lastly is it possible to upgrade my processor to a Pentium 4, if I can where can I order that and it's parts.
Please someone help I love Dell, my baby needs some doctoring. :womansad:

Replace the retention bracket and heatsink with a standard unit - this is about at $30 option, depending on the heatsink you choose.
Replace the mainbard with a new one from Dell (about $100).
You can use any socket 478 CPU as long as the bus speed is 400 MHz - the 533, 800 and 1066 MHz units will not work. Max is a 2.8.
If you buy a retail CPU it'll come with a standard heatsink - you can then buy a standard retention bracket for about $5 and be all set.
