I don't know much about the 200, but I've got a 233 installed. Evergreen do an install program which tests your motherboard/BIOS and basically says OK or forget it. If you can find it, that will save some heartache. So far as I know, all the slower upgrades require a bus speed of 66Mhz, which I think your mobo will be set for as x2.5 is one of the standard multipliers. The other variable is the voltage, which is 3.52v, but anything between 3.45 and 3.60 should work. Apart from those two, if the mobo/BIOS is compatible, it's just a matter of popping in the upgrade and off you go. I think that these slow upgrades all use the Winchip CPU which doesn't work with all things. MSDOS and Windows are OK, but DRDOS doesn't work at all and OS/2 is flaky.
