Well, I did the same thing and did eventually get it to work. The Xeon I bought was the retail version and had a heatsink attached that worked fine, so that was not a problem. I got it from Tiger Direct. I did have to buy, separately, the heatsink from IBM. I can't find the part number right now, but I was able to just look it up on the IBM site. All works fine now.

Thanks everyone. I thought I was going a little nuts when trying to find
this. Glad to hear that other people are already a little nuts.

Hey there,

 We have an IBM xSeries 226 [86484AU] server, and I need another Xeon
3.0GHZ for it.
Just looking for the best local deal I can get it. If not, I'll just use
the interweb.

Thanks,

Carl
