HP G70-111EA: HP G70-111EA laptop Core2Duo T5800 processor - development options

Hi all, I have an old laptop HP G70-111EA (product/reference: FX432EA #ABU) with a 360 C 09.67 circuit (to be honest, I have not been able to learn what it means in terms of a system or motherboard) and a Core 2 Duo T5800 processor,.

I would like to try to upgrade the processor and or anything else that I can, to try to upgrade to Windows 7, or 8 if possible... or even to try a Linux OS like Ubuntu based (as the limitations of Windows 7 and 8 will follow the 'end of the support for the operating system... as in Vista' and disappointing from my favorite Win XP loss!).  And the problem is, I can't find anywhere that identifies the exact specifications of the motherboard, cpu socket set, FSB material and possible cpu upgrade speed limits options, etc. etc that are possible... or at least reasonable for the existing hardware.

I downloaded the maintenance & Service Guide for the model, which shows a "processor Intel Core 2 Duo (6 MB of cache L2, bus 1066 MHz front)" can support a "T9400 2.53 GHz", but was really hoping to go beyond that, because it is not much better than the current T5800 2.0 GHz (2 MB L2 cache, 800 MHz FSB).

Memory options seem or PC2-5300 667 MHz, DDR2, 667 MHz, PC2-6400 DDR2-would be the limitations of memory modules motherboard, or any other material restrictions also prevent the change of the memory and change from 32-bit to 64-bit in order to increase the current limits of 3 GB to 4 GB of memory... or is it a fixed limitation built into the system.

Basically, I'm looking in any way I can increase the performance spec, any help or advice on this would be appreciated.

See you soon

The guide shows the T9400 as the top processor of the page. It wouldn't surprise me if a T9600 or a T9800 would work, but I can't guarantee these processors, and there are still enough expensive of course faster than ever. I had a laptop with the T9800 a few years back and it was pretty quick. I also just refurbished two older laptops with T9400 and with a SSD in them that they plow 10 Windows without any problem.

The max memory is 4 GB, and you can use all of this, if you are running a 64 bit OS I recommend. Even if you are running 32-bit Windows, with two identical modules will alow so to run in dual channel that the sytem can take advantage on a 32 bit OS and memory transfer is about 10% faster and every little bit help.

Yes, you can use aka PC2-6400 DDR2-800. Memory clock will always be 333 mhz (667 double) and no 400 mhz (double to 800). DDR2-800 is much more widely available.

Please post back and let us know how your project went.

  • 17-p100na HP laptop: HP laptop 17-p100na processor

    Hello

    Today I bought a laptop HP 17 - p100na which is supposed to have an AMD Quad-Core APU A6-6310 with graphics Radeon R4 (2.4 GHz, 2 MB cache)

    When I look at the properties of the system he reports it as a processor clocked at 1.8 GHz.

    No idea why this is so?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    The frequency of this processor is clocked at 1.8 GHz, but it can run up to 2.4 GHz when there is a request - see details of processor on the following link.

  • HP Envy 15-253ca: HP Envy 15-k253ca laptop HP control box scroll option is not available

    DavidPK-

    I'm having a problem that "I have had since I have the laptop in the fall of last year. and this is my 2nd post on this subject.

    The problem is, I like to use the scroll box on the control area but can not.  There is no option for settings "scroll" when I go into Control Panel and the control of HP area.

    I couldn't find a solution originally so I decided to try Windows 10. .and that it doesn't seem to solve the problem.  Now, I recently returned to Windows 8.1 and of course, this problem is back.

    I would like to know what I can do to solve the problem.  Here are the things I've tried:

    * The Original that came with the laptop operating system restoration costs

    * Uninstalling the Synaptics driver and the control of HP Zone software and reinstalled the latest version for 64-bit Windows 8.1 - like 3 - 4 times

    Thank you

    Ben

    Hi Ben,

    You may be able to work around this problem as follows.

    First, download the Synaptics driver on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    Version of the Synaptics 17.0.18.8 driver

    One time finished, open Control Panel, open programs and features, right click on the Synaptics driver and select uninstall.

    When finished, restart the laptop.

    When windows rebooted, open your download folder and re-run the installer of Synaptics - when it is finished, restart the laptop.

    Let windows take over completely for a few minutes before checking.

    Note:  In the synaptics Control Panel, it expresses "Shots of edge" option, you may need to deselect the option.

    Kind regards

  • HP Compaq dc7700 SFF PC can be upgraded to support a 2.66 GHz Intel Core2Duo (E7300) processor?

    My HP Compaq dc7700 desktop PC small form factor is equipped with a processor replacement of Intel Core2Duo 2.66 GHz (E7300), Stepping/CPU ID 10676, but I now have a start-up error message: "1801 - Microcode patch error.»  Missing or not valid processor updated Microcode.  "Please contact Hewlett - Packard Company for a new firmware update to support the new processor Stepping.

    (The computer start in pressing 'F1', but performance deteriorated due to invalid processor Microcode Update).

    I sent to HP, but have yet to receive an answer.   (They may have bigger problems right now!)

    The HP documentation for the dc7700 is ambiguous about whether if an E7300 processor would be sustained.  In this regard, the documentation recommends against editing processors more than 95W, but the E7300 is only a 65W processor (exactly the same as the original processor E6300).

    I've updated the PC system BIOS (786E1, Rev 1.16, the most recent available on the HP relevant support Web page):

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en & cc = us & prodNameId = 3232108 &...

    "(mais malheureusement, il semble que Rev 1.16 n'inclut pas une mise à jour de Microcode valide pour le processeur E7300)."

    It seems that I may need to wait and hope that HP will issue a valid and new Update Microcode for the E7300 dc7700 support page.  (With luck, the update of firmware would be included in an update of the BIOS which can be implemented through the windows, not via a legacy floppy!) 

    (I note that Intel provides an easy firmware update, but it is not easy for those who are running a Linux Enterprise operating system.  I am running Windows Vista Business 64-bit).

    This is my first post.  Thanks for all the tips on the problem that I outlined above.

    Thank you Paul and Frank,

    The evidence you presented against compatibility has begun to address substantial.

    Furthermore, it is probably not conclusive in itself, but Intel motherboards with a chipset Q965 (at least the names of the Council containing the string '965') also do not appear to support beyond E6700 processors...

  • upgrading laptop HP 630 processor

    Please what do I need to upgrade my laptop CPU current:

    model LH359EA with pentium R processor P6200 2.13 GHz to an i3 or i5 processor.

    Can I buy accessories of processor and install directly?

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    The best processor you can install is an Intel Dual Core i5 - 2540 M 2.60 GHz (turbo SC until 3.30 GHz; 3.0-)
    MB L3 cache, 35 W)

    Yes, it is a 'fast' replacement, and if you can follow the manual, you can open it and swap the processors.

    This is the CPU on eBay:

    http://www.eBay.com/ITM/Intel-Core-i5-2540M-SR044-2-6GHz-CPU-3MB-5GT-s-PGA988-CPU0006-/151357531224?PT=CPUs&hash=item233d9ca458

    It is not the best thing to do. I encourage you to consider an upgrade of RAM or SSD drive before you try to change a processor, but the bottom line is that it is possible and in your case, would probably produce a good speed improvement.

    You are the very welcome.

    Yes, the T7200 is nice because of the 4 MB cache and can run a 64 bit (not necessary and not recommended unless you can install 4 GB of memory or more) OS.

    The T2500 can only run a 32 bit OS, but it will certainly better than celery (I like to call them) processor you have in there now.
