• New motherboard and CPU... Running slow

  The back story:

  First let me preface this by saying: "I don't know much about computers.  OK, with that of the road, I have a Presario SR1703WM under XP. I added two gigs of memory a couple of years and it was running fine for what I needed.

  About a year or two back... It got to where I could not close without waiting a long time to get it to even start upward. I was told that the phones went wrong. Anyway... the food has recently taken a dive.  I replaced it, but the computer had apparently had inhaled, it is the last and sang with the choir invisible.

  I decided to fix it myself and in the process, destroyed the CPU... He looked like a little in the wake of a 747 crashing in a field of culture.

  A friend IT just happened to have a new motherboard and CPU which it replaces for me (God have mercy on its processor)

  The Situation as it is:

  The computer came back from the dead, but he is running a bit slow sometimes.  It is not constant. It seems to happen on Yahoo mail and when I watch Youtube videos or when there is a site with a kind of animation advertisemens.  Yahoo email who has a little.  PC Doctor 5 for windows came with the original computer, but now she says that she is not allowed now... not really a problem, but running a dignostic there will not happen. Compaq diagnostics is not upward in case of problem either. The slowness is erratic, even in the same session.  It can correct itself and return to normal. It seems to happen when I have more than one high screen... like if I can access Yahoo email on one screen and I do appear Facebook on another at the same time.

  Memory is adequate

  Controls for Device Manager shows all my drivers are up to date.

  The new motherboard is an Elitegroup P4M800PRO-M he came with an instellation CD

  The new processor is an Intel Pentium 4.  (He had an AMD Sempron before hand).

  Please be patient with me and use it as simple as possible when replying with advice... I do not understand a lot of technical terms... but I'm learning.

  After hours of slope on this problem... It seems that the culprits were Yahoo toolbar and Adobe Flash 9.  At least it works a lot better now. We'll see if it continues to do so.  Thanks to everyone who took the time to help.  I appreciate it.  Kudos to you all.

  So I'm wanting to upgrade my computer and I can't find a clear answer, if when I install a new one, a motherboard and CPU, but with the same RAM and the hard drive and the motherboard did not fail, I need a new installation of windows?

  If vista came preinatalled your computer, it is rated an oem license as such is related to the material that it is initially installed on

  If you have a retail license, you can upgrade your card motherboard and CPU

  you will probably have to reinstall vista while the hard drive with the existing vista installation contains the drivers for the old motherboard and probably do not start correctly

• I changed my motherboard and used instead of the version 64 bit version 32-bit now I can't activate windows.

  I changed my motherboard and now I have to reactivate windows 7 but will not accept my activation code.  Error is "you can not use the key on this computer" or other similar term.  When I activated it initially, I used the 32-bit version, now, I have the 64 b because I have more ram.  The 64 bit 32 bit versions and came with the original package I bought.

  Is there a way to pull this off with on the reinstallation of the operating system?  This post http://arstechnica.com/hardware/news/2007/09/how-to-install-a-new-motherboard-without-reinstalling-windows.ars looks promising, but not specifically for Vista.

  I don't have a Vista DVD that I bought the upgrade online. I have it on a spare SATA drive and can't burn on a DVD because for some reason any damned, it is slightly larger then what fits on a 8.4 GB DVD. I have a disc XP full version. The current installation is a clean vista who, for now, I forget exactly how I managed, but I remember that you can do a full install with upgrade to vista as long you have your original cd of XP handy.

  Hello Sqrly,

  All you can do is try. It's 50-50 if you try to fix the MBR (master boot record). If this does not work and clean install will be your only option. If I were you, I would like to do a clean install. You can download this ISO (Vista) link:http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ but the use of this software to burn your ISO. Link: http://download.cnet.com/Active-ISO-Burner/3000-2646_4-10602452.html?tag=mncol, let us know if this allows you to get your drive. Follow the instructions. Try to repair your windows MBR with this disc. If it isn't you may have an option to make your recovery partition recovery disks or you must contact the manufacturer to buy them for a small fee. Very nice MOBO you got there by the way! ;-) Let us know whether, if that helps you. Make it a great day!

• If I put a new motherboard and Cpu in my computer it will affect the license of vista 64

  I thought to upgrade my computer with a new motherboard and processor will this affect my license of vista, I guess I'll have to reinstall after I change them.

  OEM is OEM

  "If Vista is preinstalled on your computer, or you purchased an OEM/license disk, they are both classified as an OEM license and are not transferable.

  you are the System Builder

  The license of Vista OEM is related to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
  You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptop.

  This is why the OEM license you bought was cheaper than a retail sales license

  and Microsoft normally class the motherboard as the heart of the machine.

  you need to reinstall vista as the existing hard drive installed vista installed the old motherboard drivers

  You can try the tips I gave you in the 1st answer, if you have problems

  Good luck

• Upgrading motherboard and CPU, can I keep the case?

  Hello

  He was considering upgrading my motherboard and processor in my Pavilion HPE h8-1020 with a motherboard ASUS Rampage Gene IV and a processor Intel Core i7-3960 x but I have two questions:

  (1) even if the mother is form Micro ATX factor, (supposed to be the same as the case form factor I've had with my h8-1020) will be the motherboard in the case so they still features with card readers, USB ports and LED?

  (2) Will Upgrading the major portions of my PC problems for the Original (Windows 7 64-bit) operating system that currently reside on my hard drive?

  I love the current aesthetics of my case and the system.  Hoping I can keep most of the features I currently have.  Thank you, your help will be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Look at models of bolt between two motherboards.  The i/o HP plate will not work with the ASUS card sort should use the i/o ASUS plate (hope it fits).  The ASUS Q-connector will help your with the front pin but write down it to the bottom of the function for each connector.

  Case diagrams should not be done.

• question of compatibility card motherboard and CPU E430

  Hello, thinkpadians colleagues.

  I have search the forums for something similar, but had no luck. I bought an e430 from a friend that she needed money, and it came with the Sandy bridge 3254h4p HM77 motherboard and an i3 2330 m processor. I am not very well informed about the compatibility of motherboards and processors, so here:

  Am I completely reserved for the processor sandy bridge or can I try an Ivy such as the 3210 m i5 bridge provided with later versions of the thinkpad? I am aware that it came with a different motherboard and architectures, but the issue remains as I said it is possible to upgrade from different generations, as long as the motherboard supports.

  Assuming that I'm stuck with the bridges of sand, I'd be able to install a bridge tdp processor sand 45 (I have the i7 2670qm in mind) or am I also pasted with tdp 35 options?

  Thank you in advance.

  I was wrong; the HM77 should work with an Ivy Bridge.

• What are my options since I changed my motherboard and processor and now license is not valid?

  Friends, I had problems with my old build of three year with windows 7 pro 64 oem.  only now, I discovered the reason for windows refuses to activate on new construction, that I had to do because of these problems. I didn't have to have a new motherboard and processor would make unnecessary the my copy of windows. It was in my mind that there where windows 'lived' was in the hard drive. one of the reasons why I had to build another 'computer' should make a visual studio 8 microsoft c ++ problem I could not find any solution. now after an unexpected and costly reconstruction, I don't have the money to get a new license. so now, I guess that in 13 days I no longer have a computer at all. It's incredibly disappointing for me. are there any other options out there for me? Thank you for your time and your consideration.

• I bought an OEM version of Windows 8 64-bit from an online retailer. Think about changing the motherboard and I can transfer the license to it or not?

  I bought an OEM of Windows 8 64-bit of an online retailer and I was wondering if this is considered a one-time activation? Because I think about replacing my motherboard and there seems to be a lot of conflicting info on knowledge if I can transfer the license or not.

  Original title: reactivation of Windows 8

  If this is the license OEM System Builder, that you bought, it includes transfer rights, which means that you can move to another motherboard and turn it back on.
