PRO 3400 HP desktop computer. : HP PRO 3400 CPU upgrade.
Hi, anyone knows the best/upgrade CPU to speed things up, which won't break the Bank?
"RE: best/upgrade CPU to speed things up, which won't break the Bank.
It's a decision you'll have to do. We have no idea as to the limits of your budget.
It also depends on what is currently installed CPU and your use of plans for the PC.
If you have a clocked Intel Core i5 processor already installed, then go to an SSD.
Compatible processors for her are indicated in the following HP document.

Satellite Pro A10 CPU upgrade possible? Which processors?
Is it possible to upgrade the Satellite Pro A10 CPU? What processors are supported?
Hello
Usually the CPU upgrade is not possible on laptops because of several reasons.
But as far as I know that this camera was supplied with three different processors:
Intel Celeron P4 - M (Mobile) 2.0 GHz, 2.2 GHz and 2.4 GHz
Well, I put t know if the CPU was only connected or soldered onto the motherboard.However, it s not advisable to change the CPU. It is possible that after CPU change the laptop overheating for example.

I have a HP p6653w desktop computer. Can I upgrade my video card and what is the best card to get to the games?
mathenson,
You can update the video, install any PCIEx16 card video and the new PSU (power supply).
The general answer is based on the games you play. It is best to search for the site of the game, reading the recommended list 'graphics card '. Then add a little more.
graphics card comparison site. http://www.hwcompare.com/6232/Radeon-HD-5670-vs-Radeon-HD-6950-2GB/
Each graphics card is then looked up, noting the length of the card connectors (power cards) required recommended PSU.
Example: XFX HD6950 2 GB:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150530
(1) two PCIE 6pin power wires
(2) card 10 "
(3) min 500W PSU, if you add up. Your 250W + card + fresh 200W generals = 600W
630W PSU will fix the wiring and size http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182200

Satellite Pro L100 CPU upgrade
Hello
The hope for some advice.
I recently bought a Satellite Pro L100 of second hand, came up with the following configuration.
Celeron M 370, 256 MB Ram, 40 GB drive HARD, Win XP
As the laptop is out of warranty, I disassembled the laptop and upgraded to the following specification.
Pentium M 735 (SL7EP), 2 GB of Ram, disk HARD 40, Win 7 Ultimate
Everything seems to work perfectly, but he hopes to upgrade the processor more far, to maybe a Core Duo.
I noticed on the Toshiba datasheet (* http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/Contents/Toshiba_uk/EN/Others/SatProL100datasheet.pdf *) for the L100, the configuration of this laptop back to a Core Duo 2400 (though on the motherboard PSLA1)
Only problem I can see is the Core Duo 2400 only comes in a FC-µBGA package, while the L100 seems to have a CF-µPGA socket, a CF-µBGA CPU will correspond to a socket FC-µPGA?
Also, does anyone know if the PSLA4 in my L100 motherboard supports a front side bus to 667 or 533 MHz?
I sent Toshiba direct support - but unfortunately they have advised that because they haven't tested any other CPU on the laptop that they cannot advise me - seems a bit strange response given that they use multiple configurations on the same motherboard.
Thanks a lot, Vaughn.
S.Wales, UK.> Also, does anyone know if the PSLA4 in my L100 motherboard supports a front side bus to 667 or 533 MHz?
It depends on the chipset.
As much as I know the laptop supports Mobile Intel® 945GM Express Chipset

Hey guys, im wanting to improve my cpu. I have an Acer Aspire x 3400 and 7 GB of ram and have improved the gpu to a GT720 that works very well, I am now looking to upgrade my cpu, nobody knows better that I could buy that would go with stock psu.

Hello:
You're right about the Cedar Mill running cooler than the Prescott.
But I don't think that level 650/651, there will be much if any difference in the production of heat.
When you get to the 660 vs the 661, it's where you'll really see the difference.
I would like to make the change for the following reasons: 400 MHz faster, faster FSB (800 MHz) and double cache L2.
For any reason, you can then run a 64 bit desktop OS. Your 3.06 is capable of 64-bit No.
I enclose a link so that you can compare your current processor, the 650 and the 651 side by side.

Visiting the graphic issue. You cannot change your screen resolution to anything other than what is there.
Also your graphics acceleration is disabled. Play one of the Microsoft games group and you will get an error, you need to close before you can play.
Nor do you have Windows Aero.
I hope that you can install this driver, so you can change your screen resolution regardless of your monitor/video card used to be able to manage and activate the graphic acceleration again.
This is the first you can try:
I think that you will get an error when you run the file that says OS not supported. Close it and click on your VGA adapter in Device Manager. Click the driver tab click on update driver. Select travel it my computer for the software method and navigate to C:\SWSetup\sp34550. Make sure that the include subfolders is selected and see if the pilot goes like this.
If the office driver does not work, try the driver for laptop. Make the method to browse, then navigate to C:\SWSetup\sp34749.
If none of these video drivers work, you're stuck with what you see, unless you buy a Windows 7 capable PCI video card that works within your power.

Upgrade graphics card for HP Pavilion A6720Y desktop computer
I have the HP Pavilion A670Y desktop computer and was thinking of upgrading the graphics card GeForce 9100 integrated to a Radeon HD5850 and adding a new power which would allow this change. Power side is there a reason that my office would not be able to support the Radeon HD5850?
It's your motherboard. Make sure that the slot next to the PCI-E x 16 card is open as 5850 is a wide double card. Your PC has only a 300 watt PSU so 5850 is only in need of a much larger power supply. Look at the 12 + rating required by the 5850 and then choose the new modular power supply. Buy not only on power alone.
Your PC has a practice of small Tower and the 5850 will consume more power (wattage) compared to your existing integrated video processor which means more heat. Be prepared to deal with this issue. The 5850 is perhaps too card for your PC.
Don't forget that your PC system BIOS is up to date.
Open your Pc and clean all the dust. Then a measure of your current diet and buy one that is modular with almost the same dimensions. Then measure around the PCI-E x 16 slot to make sure that the card fits.
Review the specifications of performance ATI and NVIDIA . Look at the specifications of strip memory bandwidth and level of DirectX support.

Transfer Vista Business on XP Pro computer.
I have a desktop computer with Vista business I want to upgrade to Windows 7 and install Vista on a laptop that has XP Pro but is Vista capable.
Hello
If you use the Vista licence as part of the upgrade to Windows 7 you cannot use the license of Vista anywhere elsewhere
It is part of the upgrade process
and also read this on licensing rules;
If Windows was preinstalled on your computer, Dell, HP, etc., or you bought an OEM/license disk, they are both classified as an OEM license and are not transferable.
The Windows OEM license is linked to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptopIf a retail Windows license, you can transfer it to another computer/laptop.
But it can only be installed on one computer at a time.A single license is a single Installation.

Printing on a wireless active 8500 Pro from a desktop computer.
So I'm wondering is, I can print to the printer pro 8500 wireless active even if the only wireless device is my router? My office is connected to the router via ethernet cable. The printing process of travel via the cable to the router and then to transmit wirelessly to the printer? I hope that this issue has not been addressed; as I couldn't find the info at the end of 20 minutes, I decided to post.
For get all answered in a post here is my situation. I have a desktop computer connected to a router via an ethernet cable, I have desktop computer connected to the printer via the usb port. I just bought a laptop. I want to set up a way to use the printer (8500 pro wireless) with the desktop and laptop, hopefully without having to connect to the laptop via a cable. I know I have to remove the USB to use either a wired or wireless configuration.
Thanks in advance.
I short - YES.
A router does not care how 'customers' are attached - wired or wireless - all devices can visit each other.

How to install the ISO of Windows 7 Home 64 bit version while it is still in use on the original material? I will of course stop HP desktop computer once the installation is successful. It is a chicken and egg situation or do I leeqway 30 days trial?
Thank you very much
If the family license for Windows 7 Edition Premium you plan to install are preinstalled on HP, then the license agreement prevents you from doing. This is because it is an OEM license, OEM licenses are not transferable computer on it are preinstalled.
The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:
-OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft
-OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on
-OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard
-OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system
If it is a retail license, you can proceed to install it on your Mac and reactivate by phone.
How to activate Windows 7 manually (activate by phone)
1) click Start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4
(2) press the ENTER"" key.
(3) select your "country" in the list.
(4) choose the option "activate phone".
(5) stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.
(6) explain your problem clearly to the support person.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950929/en-usIf its a license upgrade, the machine or virtual machine (Parallels) must have a previous qualifying installed license.
However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.
15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.
So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

Can someone help me with this?

OS: 8.1 Pro 64 bit WindowsJoBla, welcome to the forum.
It is becoming increasingly difficult to ensure that the latest components will work in an old computer. Your computer is almost 3 years old. My suggestion is to choose the SSD and the video card you want to buy and contact the Technical Support of the manufacturer to determine if it will work with your computer. They are the experts on their products. This will save you the possibility to pay for the return of one of them. That's what I did and it works fine.
I can recommend a PSU 600W (PSU), however. I love Corsair products. Here is a very good power supply. Read the reviews to see what users have to say about it. There is a modular version of it, too. The modular power supply is good for medium-sized cases. It allows you to use only the cables that are absolutely necessary. Which makes for airflow and better cable management.
