• HP Compaq 8510p: is it possible to update from the Intel Core 2 Duo T8300 CPU on the HP Compaq 8510p to a T9600

  Hi all

  I want to upgrade my HP Compaq 8510p.

  I have an Intel Core 2 Duo T8300 installed. It's pretty fast, but I would need to increase the RAM memory. Unfurtunately, it only supports 3 GB. I searched the web and found the T9600. Similarly, the T9700 and the Q9100 have a the same base (P) and have been suggested here: http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/CPUs/Intel/Core_2_Duo_Mobile/T8300 _ (Socket_P) .html

  On the other hand, I've read, the Quad may not be supported by the motherboard, which im my case seems to be called 30CS KBC Version 71.36

  My BIOS version is the Ver.F.15 of 68MVD

  I would be grateful for any help regarding this issue.

  Thank you.

  Here is the Service Manual that answers all the questions:

  Your manual

  See p. 24. Top of page processor listed is a T9500. Quad is not supported. Other processors dual-core as a T9900 might work, but you're better off to take the manual is correct.

  The laptop can support that 3 GB RAM because you are not running a 32 bit OS. It is capable of up to 8 GB, but it uses DDR2 and 8 GB of DDR2 memory is very expensive; well over US $100.

• I have an iMac7, 1 with Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 GHz, 2 GB memory, 500 GB storage, iOS10.6.8 and can update in 10.11.2.  must I do cela or are there problems with the upgrade?

  I don't know about other issues. There are always 'problems' with any upgrade. You weigh against the benefits. I know that you need more RAM. At least 4 GB, maybe more if you can. Don't forget that this system is produced at a time when most of the machines have + 8 GB RAM and when Apple said 'minimum' they really mean it.  I recently inherited a MacBook that has 2 GB of RAM and the Mavericks. When I checked the memory, the use of the system was using 1.95 GB = nothing to run applications!

  His quiet old, so my questions are:

  1. the question of whether I should upgrade my processor or buy a new one (or another desktop computer / laptop)?  My rule of thumb is do not upgrade the processor unless the speed is almost doubled.  I don't think that the performance will be enough to justify the increased cost.

  2 and if there is a possibility of an upgrade, then can evolve this processor to the 2nd genration i3/5/7? This is supported by HP CPU upgrades: see below.

  3. I like to play games, and I have only 256 MB Nvidia graphics card. Can I level too? If so, then how?  The first thing to determine is the power of the power supply unit (PSU).  I think that it can be only 250W.  You can open the case and read the label on.  Latest maps of intermediate level require at least 400W.  So, if my guess is correct, you will need to upgrade the PSU also.  I like the graphics cards XFX, BFG, EVGA, Sapphire and PNY in that order.  I love OCZ and Corsair PSU.

  With this information, you can determine if you need to upgrade or buy a new computer.  If you decide to buy a new computer, I suggest a desktop computer for games.  They run a lot cooler.  Be sure to buy one with the power supply with the most power possible.  The PSU is the backbone of the computer.  If you have any other questions, let me know.

  Thanks in advance!

• Vista starts is no longer with my Intel core 2 duo processor.

  I am unable to start my Vista Home premium PC using my Intel core 2 duo processor. Initially, my PC came with an Intel P4 - 641, which I've upgraded to a processor E4700 Intel core 2 duo. I had no problem with the upgrade for four years until recently where it would not start.  I get the message to repair windows. I tried to repair and restore the windows are done everything to nothing. I even bought a new hard drive and a different processor - core 2 duo Intel E6600. Only when I re inserted the P4 would normally start from the PC to the top. I tried to install the firmware for vista reliability update: KB936357 to solve problems of stability with Intel core 2 duo processor. But the installer tells me that the update is not applicable, because I am running a P4. Please help as I really want to turn the core 2 duo on my system. I already installed the latest version of the bios available for my system.

• Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 & virtual 64-bit machines

  Hello

  I have a machine that has the processor Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 I know supports VT - X.

  I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit and have VMware PLayer installed. I have 64 bit VM, mainly linux (Suse and Fedora) that work perfectly on a Dell laptop with an i5 processor, however when I run them on the E6400 processor I get error which is about 64-Bit support and LongMode.

  I've verified that this processor VT - X support so am not sure why it does not work?

  I also checked with the tool of processor 64-bit and which confirms that the processor is capable of running 64-bit guests so not sure what is the problem.

  There is no parameters with the firmware that control VT - X, so I'm a bit stuck regarding this.

  Any ideas would be very appreciated.
  Thank you.
  Dave

  There is no parameters with the firmware that control the VT - X

  Often this parameter is bit "hidden" in the security settings of the BIOS. You can also check if a newer BIOS is available that allows this parameter, where you can't find it.

  I have a MacBook Pro 17 withProcessor - in 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (circa 2007).  Running OS 10.7.5 (Lion).  System indicates the computer is not compatible with OS later.  Hardware can be upgraded to the latest processors and other components to make it compatible with the latest OS.  I think that later models of Macbook Pro 17-inch with processors that allow updates.  I was wondering if these can be swapped or if alternatives were available.

  Only the RAM and storage (HD, SSD) can be changed.  Everything is welded to the map logical and selected specially for the system configuration.

• My Tecra A8 Celeron or Intel Core 2 Duo processor processor?

  I have a Tecra A8 (PTA83E-04R039EN) T7200/1024 / 100 G 54/15WT/DS2/L/M, it has a sticker on the top for Intel centrino duo processor. All read ups and support show is a processor core 2 duo with 4 MB of cache.

  However when I do a utility ID of Intel processors and software benchmark, it shows me that the processor I have is actually a Celeron M with 1 MB of cache.

  This is correct?
  Have I received the wrong processor in my machine or what?
  Hope someone can answer this.

  I installed Vista and it also shows that it is a Celeron M 1.73 GHz?

• Can I place a Dell OptiPlex 755 with Intel Core 2 Duo in Windows 8 Pro to Windows Pro 8.1?

  Can I place a Dell OptiPlex 755 with Intel Core 2 Duo in Windows 8 Pro to Windows Pro 8.1? I tried several times. I wonder if my computer does not meet the requirements for upgrade. How can I?

  Hello Andrew,.

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft community Forums.

  According to the description, you want to upgrade to windows 8 for windows 8.1 on your system.

  As you already use windows 8 on your system, you can try to upgrade to windows 8.1. However, there are some system requirements that are needed to run windows 8.1 correctly on your system. Please see the link below for the topic of system requirements.

  Reference:

  The system configuration required

  Outside the system requirements, you will also need the windows 8.1-compatible drivers. There is a possibility that some devices may not work if the compatible drivers for windows 8.1 are not installed on your system. Driver are manufactured by the manufacturer of the system. It seems that Dell has not made drivers for windows 8.1.

  Refer to the link checking the available drivers for your system.
