from 1000 to his death. He was the second son of
Landulf III of Benevento, who was only a co-ruler. Thus, he was easily removed from the succession on his father's death. His brother
Pandulf eventually succeeded in becoming
Prince of Benevento.
In 1000, the reigning prince of Capua,
Adhemar, was overthrown. The brother of the reigning prince of Benevento was called in. Before he was elevated to princely status, he had been compensated with the county of

Pandulf II and by his brother, who ruled Capua as regent and prince as Pandulf III.
