They are physically compatible, just reversed in alternate directions. They are electronically totally different, however, and a processor designed for Slot 1 cannot be used in Slot A, and vice versa.

Can you use a Slot 1 CPU with a socket type motherboard?

No. Slot 1 cartridges were extremely complex. In addition to likely not fitting correctly in most, the connector would be extremely fragile, holding a large and bulky cartridge by a few fragile pins. No adapter was ever created for this reason. However, there are adapters to use Socket 370 processors on a Slot 1 motherboard. This is possible because Socket 370 processors are much smaller than Slot 1.

What do you do if your motherboard is old and you want to improve it but the RAM and CPU and other things from that old motherboard won't work for the new motherboard?

When we upgrade our motherboard we concentrate following important points to make changes in ouy PC 1 - First check that the Ram is Dimm or Simm (Too old memory )if it is Dimm Ram then you will have to check that this Ram is of 66 Buses , 100 Buses , or of 133. Normally P1 works 66 bus ram and P2 works 100 bus ram 2 - Then come to Processor , see wether it is Slot Processor or Socket Processor depending on the processor type you will have to get the new motherboard For example I have a PC with a Motherboard XL 2000 and I want to change my motherboard so the Ram that is installed with XL 2000 is 64 MB 100 bus and Processor is Genuine Intel 350 Mhz (Slot Type) I may get the other motherboard say Intel 810 C Chipset or GFXL (because) Both the motherboards support Ram with 100 bus and My Slot Processor 350 Mhz It would be better for you to confirm by asking before purchasing new or other motherboard that what is the final range of processor that the new motherboard will support As I change my motherboard from XL 2000 TO GFXL OR Intel 810c I will Use my own slot processor 350 Mhz that is PII Processor but I can also change My processor from 350 to 500 600 Slot processor to make my system PIII whenever I get the money.
