It is possible to upgrade my hp xw station 8400 base unit of work 32-bit to 64-bit works sysytem?

It is possible to upgrade my hp xw station 8400 base unit of work 32-bit to 64-bit works sysytem? Also is it useful? Or should I buy a new computer, I'm currently under XP and want to up grade to Windows 7.

Hello

32-bit to 64-bit is never a way of upgrading; It must be done with a clean install.

And before you buy Windows 7, you would like to read this information:

Go to the HP website and check if Windows 7 drivers (32-bit or 64-bit) are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=20

Check if your specifications are compatible for Windows 7:

"Windows 7 system requirements"

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/system-requirements

"Windows 7 Compatibility Center" for software and hardware:

http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/default.aspx

Windows 7 upgrade paths:

http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd772579 (v = ws.10) .aspx

And the Microsoft Store where you can get an idea of the price of Windows 7:

See you soon.

  • Is satellite Pro M70-235 - possible to upgrade the processor?

    Hello

    Is it possible to upgrade of processor in this laptop (Pentium M 750-1866 MHz) Pentium M 780 2266 MHz?

    Thank you..

    Hello

    Theoretically, it of possible to exchange the processor on your laptop, but nobody will be able to tell if the laptop works fine with the new processor or not.

    You mustn't forget that the BIOS and motherboard is designed for the preinstalled CPU and it s not tested with another processor. Normally a newer or faster CPU produces more heat and I don t know if the Assembly of cooling on your laptop is sufficient for this.

    If you still have the warranty of your laptop you will lose because Toshiba doesn't support the CPU upgrade:

  • Portege A100 - possible to upgrade processor?

    Is Hey, also possible to upgrade the current 1.4 ghz processor to a much larger processor, such as a 3 ghz processor? If Yes can - that someone recommend where I could buy a chip... and I need a toshiba technician to fit?

    Daniel

    Hello

    Portege A100 is a tiny unit and the increase in the temperature and the cooling of the processor is very difficult on this laptop.
    The biggest CPU will produce more heat, and this could lead to overheating problems.

    I put t think it's possible to upgrade the processor to 3 GHz.
    In any case, in most cases it of not possible to upgrade the processor and not advised to do on laptops.
    Maybe you'll be able to install a stronger CPU 1.4 Ghz, but you're not sure that the OS will be stable after upgrade

    PS: You will lose the warranty if you open the Notepad or remove all the parts inside the laptop

  • Is satellite C660D - possible to upgrade the processor?

    Is it possible to upgrade the C660D processor E-240 to an E-350.

    1. the BIOS will accept the change?

    3. expected problems?

    Hey,.

    Theoretically, it is possible to swap the CPU, but an upgrade is not supported by Toshiba. This means that you lose the warranty and no one can say if other types of CPU are supported or not because there is no list with other processors.

    Can also make sure that the current fan and cooling module is good enough for better CPU?

  • Is it possible to upgrade the processor in a Satellite M40 - 101?

    I have 479 pin provided Pentiuma® M 730 1.6 Ghz processor. It is insufficient for some tasks more. So I would like to upgrade CPU, but is it possible?

    Hello

    Theoretically, it is possible to upgrade the CPU but practically it is not easy to do.
    The M40 comes with different CPU's.
    As far as I know, these processors has been used and are compatible:
    -Processor Intel Dothan (533 MHz)
    730 1.6 GHz
    740 1.73 GHz
    750 1.86 GHz
    760 2.0 GHz
    770 2.13 GHz

    It seems that notebook was shipped with the first.
    But believe me; No one can tell if the laptop can run successfully after the CPU upgrade.
    As you probably know the faster and more powerful processor produces more heat and this could lead to overheating of the laptop.
    In my view, this is a serious problem and you should be careful

    By the way: Please check this thread. The risk of upgrading have been described very detailed:

    It is possible to upgrade the hard drive on my Tecra S1 on a 80 GB HDD +. If Yes, what is the maximum size and can recommend a disk.

    I found some info, and it seems that you can only use a 30/40 and 60 GB HARD drive.
    I guess that the 80 GB HARD drive will not be recognized by the BIOS correctly.

    I want to be able to play FIFA14 apparently she drags on the current processor.

    My ram is 6 GB and I think that's enough.

    Usually these updates is not supported by any laptop manufacturer.

    But I read in some discussions that to some were able to upgrade the Intel processors in laptops own. But your laptop (which model of phone is it exactly?) seems to be equipped with an AMD processor and I guess that the chipset is AMD too.
    In this case only the AMD CPUS would be compatible with the AMD chipset.

    However, even if the AMD chipset would be favorable to another CPU, I guess you would have problems with BIOS. In many cases, the compatibility of the BIOS might be the main reason why a CPU upgrade would not work.

    So officially his unsupported by Toshiba but if the socket on the motherboard and the chipset would support the new processor then you'd have a good chance to get the new processor running on this device.

  • Satellite 2800-200; is it possible to upgrade the memory and HARD drive capacity

    Hi all

    my computer is a Toshiba Satellite S2800-200 (old) and I wont to ask if it is possible to upgrade memory capacity and disk.

    Thank you

    Of course you can upgrade these laptop parts.
    The laptop seems to be equipped with an internal memory which is not removable.

    http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=7168&ft=m&St=3
    According to the website above, you can use only one memory for an upgrade slot.
    You can use the 144-Pin PC100 SODIMM 128 MB module. It's max.

    I m not 100% sure on the HARD drive, but as I m not trunk not the laptop came with 10 GB HARD drive. Generally, a 20 GB HARD drive should be possible.

  • Portege M400: Is it possible to upgrade processor

    Hi all :)

    I have a Portege M400 with a T2300 and I would like to know if it is possible to upgrade the processor, a
    If so, what CPU are compatible and with what version of bios?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    Usually the upgrade CPU or replacement on laptops is not possible or very difficult and risky. It could be possible that the laptop does not start or will not work stable after upgrading the CPU. The overheating could be one of the biggest problems!

    So, really, I do not recommend upgrading the processor! It s not worth risking damage only to get a small increase in CPU performance.

    But if you want to know which processor is supported by the chipset then the following ;)

    The M400 computer is equipped with a processor Intel Core Duo or Intel Core Solo processor. These processors include a mathematical coprocessor, a 2 MB L2 cache.

    The M400 comes with one of the following speeds:

    _Intel core Duo Processor_
    -1.66 GHz (processor number: T2300)
    -1.83 GHz (processor number: T2400)
    -2.00 GHz (processor number: T2500)
    -2.16 GHz (processor number: T2600)

    _Intel core Solo Processor_
    -1.66 GHz (processor number: T1300)
