Compaq PresarioCQ56: As upgrade Presasrio CQ56 Celeron (R) 900@2.2GHz for faster processor

Based on the diagnosis of HP my CPU is the weakest (3.3 out of 7.9 possible).

Motherboard: 1605 90.17)

System BIOS F.15

Don't prod no XG635 AU #ABA

I would like to examine the feasibility of the upgrade of this laptop relatively inexpensive, 4 year old. I upgraded the

original hard drive 500 GB (Seagate Momentus TX) and doubled the RAM to 4 BG (Crucial CT1901113).

Most hard drive and the doubling of memory has made a faster system. Now the link is more about speed

the processor.

Has anyone successfully run such an upgrade? What, if any, problems came, you get a maximum return or

are there compromises? I assume here that you, who you are, got right from the start components and

They plugged straight into (any number of hard wire, bad CPU model, hunting for the right pair and finally it).

If you did and had to do it all again, knowing now exactly how, you would do

and how would not a second time around?

I would appreciate any input, but only to a person who made this upgrade. I prefer not to go on the suggestions as 'you can try this' and 'or try this '.

Please answer only if you really know.

Very important: what model of CPU you have upgrade to? Any suggestions where to buy?

Thank you

Hi 46scandalli2000,

Welcome to the HP support community! I see that you are looking to upgrade your processor. While I did not myself I can give you some information on this. On most laptops, you will need to replace the entire system (motherboard) card to replace the processor. However, in your model, the processor is replaceable. Here are your Maintenance and Service of Guide and on page 75 you will find a list of compatible processors and instructions to replace.

    Recently upgraded to El Capitan, I had that problem for Mail stop unexpectedly when I saw some posts.  I followed the steps and was able to remove the trouble messages.   Now I can't restore the mail window message viewer component.  When I try to catch the separator bar to go back to the left, only half of the small arrow icon and line appears, and it cannot be moved.   Can open the message by double clicking a message viewer.

    Hi there, alicefrompa!

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. From your post, I understand that you do not see the Message Viewer box which allows you to read your e-mails; only see you the Inbox that includes a brief overview of the message and are unable to restore access using the separator bars. I have had this happen to my own Mail app and am happy to let you know how I could fix!

    You are really on the right track - you want to roll your mouse over the divider between the Inbox and sections Message Viewer (which should now be on the extreme right edge of your mail window) and drag it to the left.  When you click on the receipt/Message Viewer box, the cursor turns into a line continuous black with a single arrow pointing to the left. When you see the cursor change, click with the left button of the mouse and (while holding down the mouse button in) drag the combination line / arrow to the left. You may need to drag a little further than before to get it. I had to hang mine almost completely in the middle of my Mail app before the display of the message box appeared.

    From there, you should be able to adjust the boxes to your widths you want as expected.

    If you are still not able to get the display of the messages visible after have try this, here are a few more things that you can do.

    1. Press command + O on your keyboard.
    2. Exit the Mail application, and then press on and hold the SHIFT key on your keyboard while reopening.
    3. Restart your Mac by selecting the menu  Apple in the upper right of your screen restart from the menu drop down.

    See you soon!

    Not until Mozilla gets started the 3.6.x to 4.0 notification 'upgrade', which will probably not happen for another 2 to 4 weeks based on how they handled this type of 'upgrade' in the past.

    I plan to upgrade my OS to El Capitan.  What are the processor speed and memory required for the operating system works well?

    I use a processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 with DDR3 4 GB 1333 MHz memory.

    My last similar attempt on another machine resulted in a very slow computer.

    Thanks, Ron

    Apple says the following:

    General requirements

    • OS X 10.6.8 or later version
    • 2 GB memory
    • 8.8 GB of available storage

    For best performance, I would say not less 4 GB and preferably 8 GB or more.

    Your i5 is well able to support properly.

    Hi, Andrey:

    Accroding to the specifications of your laptop, it comes with a processor AMD Turion X 2 Ultra ZM - 85 Dual - Core Mobile, correct?

    If this is the case, you can not put an Intel processor in a laptop computer with an AMD processor.

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

    Support for AMD processors are listed in Chapter 1, page 1.

    It would not be the time or the money to upgrade to one of the most numbered 2 processors as yours.

  • Compaq Presario CQ5500Y: Compaq Presario SSD upgrade

    Original 500 GB drive HARD shows signs of failure eminent.

    I cloned successfully the reader to a new 400 GB disk using NORTON GHOST.

    (I know this drive is smaller than the original, but less than 30GB was used on the original)

    Anyway, the new drive would not start.

    Assuming that the problem may come from the BONES associated with the license, I ordered all of the Compaq recovery disks.

    Meanwhile the recovery disk set arrive, I bought a 120 GB Sandisk SSD.

    (Again, I know that the 120 GB SSD is smaller than the original 500 GB HARD disc that came with the computer, but I do not plan to fill even 50%).

    Anyway, The Recovery Disc Set arrived and I tried to use it on the new 120 GB SSD Sandisk card.

    The process seems to be okay, all 3 discs of the series seem to copy and then the computer restarts and a screen displaying the files fly across the screen from one folder to the other stays there forever.

    I waited 15 hours and came back and I can still see:

    Fly across the screen, files from one folder to another folder.

    The drive activity light flashes, but of course, there is a problem.

    Some possible facts/related information:

    The SSD is detected in the BIOS.

    The good SSD checks, a "Smart" BIOS Diagnostics

    I can't find anywhere in the BIOS to disable the AHCI, it only shows SATA or IDE.

    Current Bios version is 5.5.5, and I couldn't find an updated BIOS anywhere.

    Current memory (RAM) is 4 GB (2x2gb), which was an upgrade because the machine was purchased.

    Can someone tell me please how to get beyond this problem?

    Greetings,

    I use the Paragon Professional Disk Imaging software.

    Try Macrium Reflect free. Disk cloning is also included in the free version.

    See you soon!

  • Compaq Presario CQ5600F: upgrade to M2N68-(Narra6)

    Hello. I have a desktop PC Compaq Presario CQ5600F which took a power surge. I use Windows 10 Pro and I'd like to update the Pegatron M2N68-(Narra5) motherboard M2N68-(Narra6). I saw some of these for the sale of the mobo. Can someone point me in the right direction. I'm trying to find the drivers and perhaps installation information. The motherboards I've seen are either used, rebuilt, or "other nine" with no accessories.

    Hi @stan7926,

    Thank you for your participation in the Forums of HP Support! It is a great location to get resolutions and interact with experts from the community. I understand that you need information on an upgrade of the motherboard of your PC. I'll be happy to help you with this.

    A remarkable work was done by your little research on upgrading motherboard for your desktop PC before you post your question in the forums of HP. It's always a great pleasure to work with tech-savvy and technically customers sounds like you. Kudos to you for this. I am amazed at your technical skills and levels of technical knowledge.

    First of all, the specifications are very clear on the HP website. It supports "M2N68-(Narra5)" with the drivers, BIOS and other updates available on the HP Web site. About the upgrade to M2N68-(Narra6), it may be possible, but before you buy the product, I would suggest that you contact a technician on-site that this motherboard is not listed by HP as a compatible Web site.

    I thank you greatly for posting your question on the forums of HP and for giving us the platform to help you. You are a customer of HP and we greatly thank you for doing business with HP.

    It is important that you are having problems with the bios and driver incompatibilities on the motherboard and windows 10 Therefore, it is recommended that you contact a local technician and check the compatibility of the motherboard before making any attempt to improve it. We cannot have the bios for it and corresponding drivers. Once again, you will need to visit the websites of 3rd party hardware manufacturers to update the bios and other drivers.

    I hope this helps! Please let me know how it goes. If it helps, please mark this message as 'accept as a Solution. If you need help, let me know and I will gladly do everything I can to help. If you want to say 'Thank you' for my efforts help, click on the button 'Thumbs Up' to give me a Kudos. I really hope that the problem is solved without hassle and things work fine for you.

    Now carefully and have a great week ahead.

    My friend's computer is out of memory so that she can't play a game with us. She has need of more memory so I want to upgrade the RAM, but I'm not sure which one to buy.

    Mousu, welcome to the forum.

    This is memory that is recommended by HP to be compatible with its motherboard:

    • Dual channel memory architecture

  • Compaq presario sr5518f upgrade processors

    First of all, I apologize if I do not write in the correct section.  A little new here.

    in any case, I'm going to completely overhaul my Compaq Presario SR5518F.  I'll get a new graphic/video card, power supply, and processor.

    Speaking of the processor, I have a question for someone who would know the upgrade of processors.

    The specs of my PC (which can be accessed HERE) said I can move to an Intel Core 2 Duo E7xxx.  I'm looking at upgrading to an Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 processor which has close to 3.0 Ghz (2.8 to be precise) of the operating speed.

    The question I have, is the Intel Core 2 Duo processor E7400 compatiable for my Compaq Presario computer motherboard?  I have never replaced or upgraded forever, and so I want to make sure I'm making the right decisions when buying upgrades.

    I would appreciate your help or you guys could give me advice.   Thank you and have a nice!

    Hello

    As you can see from the following link:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01386897

    It supports Core 2 Duo E7xxx (Wolfdale-M) CPU means that it will support CPU E7400 but you must update the BIOS to make sure.

    Kind regards.

  • Compaq 6730 s: upgrade HP compaq 6730 s RAM (4 GB - > 8 GB)

    Hello

    I have a 7 years hp compaq 6730 s running windows and ubuntu. It has 4 GB of ddr2 ram (667 MHz, according to me, but I'm not course on this) and a dual processor Intel Centrino 64-bit. It still works great. But I have to run long analysis and many programs at the same time and that makes it sometimes slow down or even freeze. I was wondering if I should look more than an upgrade of RAM or an upgrade of the processor. I think the first, but I've never done before

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I run Lunix so I don't know how he manages memory. In other Word, I know that we can put the data in memory and eliminate the disk i/o - much, much, much faster but in this word RAM is still very, very expensive. Now, they will put flash card of new machines which is much less expensive to use for page and swap files. In short, more memory is good.

    Kind regards.
