• Can satellite U400 - I switch to a quad core CPU?

  Hello

  I recently bought a Satellite U400, and I was wondering if I could move the CPU on a quad core processor.

  * is it physically possible? that is, fit the plug? It seems that the Q9xxx and the T5750 share the same socket but maybe he ore other parameters to look for.
  * How can I check if the motherboard supports the Q9xxx? I should probably need a BIOS upgrade: what is the difference between a win32 and win64 bios? I could guess that has something to do with the target OS, but should I assume that the "win64" adapts to any OS 64-bit-ready (i.e. linux, * bsd)?
  * are there significant losses in the battery life?
  Thanks in advance

  > in any case, is there a way to check if the BIOS / motherboard supports a quad core CPU?
  You will not find any information about the BIOS and CPU support on Toshiba pages.
  The BIOS has been designed the U400 and CPU that is equipped with the U400 series.

  I put t know which chipset your U400 is compatible but my U400 supports Intel GM965 chipset, and the Intel GM965 supports the same features as Intel PM965 chipset.
  http://www.Intel.com/assets/PDF/datasheet/316273.PDF

  The Intel PM965 chipset supports the processor Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile for Mobile Intel 965 express chipset family.
  The Quad core CPU is not mentioned. So, it seems that these processors are not supported!

• Re: Qosmio G50-10 t: How can I use the Quad - Core CPU Toshiba HD?

  Hello.

  And how you can use several Toshiba Quad Core HD processor with four RISC SIMD 128-bit processors in the Qosmio G50-10 t except that: enables support for H.264 encoders / HD / MPEG2 decoders, with functions for convert, transcode, navigate using the face (Face Navigation) detection and control actions. INJURY is not used!

  Maybe someone knows some software sales in which it could be used.

  Hello

  This Quad Core CPU is an additional processor that is not always in use.
  It was designed in the order using the main processor in some of the media process.
  For example, the Quad Core CPU works during the encoding or decoding of certain video standards. If you want to change it the standard of the video, the Quad Core CPU helps you complete this quick procedure.

  In addition, it improves the quality of the video (not HD). So, theoretically, you can view the videos in HD quality.
  Of course, you won't get the same quality as a film that has been recorded in full HD, but the Quad Core helps you improve the 576i pictures.

• Can games i run well with an a4 5000 quad core cpu AMD processor?

  Hello, I have an aser aspire laptop e1 - 522 and I want to use it for some games. If everything is fine, I'll be able to get a gaming pc but if I usually I want to know this: I have an amd a4 5000 apu quad core cpu and it has 512 MB memory syestem grphics. I have also 4 GB of ram at 800 mhz. If I move to 8 GB 1600 mhz ram I'll be able to... play cod 4, 5, and 2 setting ultra 720 p (1080 p maby) at 40 to 60 fps. also I want to be able to play transformers wfc and jib to medium to low 720 p at 40-50 fps. my laptop apu can do with ram upgrade?

  Thank you.

  Looks like your computer is more than capable of some great games. If you were to do something, my first upgrade would be to double your RAM 8 GB.

• Unique use of VM CPU on the system dual quad core CPU

  My environment: two machines, a Dell 2950 with dual quad core CPU, running ESX 4.0 Advanced.

  Machine 1 to several virtual machines on it.

  Machine 2 has a virtual machine that hosts a .NET/IIS web application built by an external supplier. The web application is having performance issues (users requests take a long time to complete in some cases). I suspect, without having yet done an in-depth, analysis is that the web application is not well resolved/optimized/designed.

  The declared owner of hardware requirements is exactly how Machine 2 is - dual quad core CPU. However - There's the rub: I did not understand if a single virtual machine running on this computer can actually use all the resources, particularly CPU resources, on the machine. And my application provider takes that position - since we have not met the minimum hardware requirements for the application, which can be the cause of the poor performance, which means that the seller has no responsibility for the performance issue.

  I tried to understand/consider the Enterprise more than vSphere edition, because it seems possible that only this version of vSphere would allow me to assign all the hearts of all the processors from the server to the computer virtual one. However, this seems like overkill, and also, after some reading on the SMP of Enterprise Plus features, it seems, as using SMP can help in some cases and poorly in others.

  Right now I'm looking to remove vmware Machine 2 and just install the application on the machine, in order to eliminate the possibility that vmware restricts the application to all physical resources (CPU). But I thought I'd ask a glimpse of this group first.

  Any input appreciated.

  Thank you

  Brad Harding

  Each physical core (or "core" hyperthreading) is considered to be one vCPU. You will therefore 8 vCPUs in your system (assuming hyperthreading is not enabled). However, you can approve vCPU which means that you can run several virtual machines than available vCPUs. This is because you do not usually have the VMs that need all the power of the processor, and they can be used more efficiently with VMware planning the vCPUs.

• Quad Core CPU - how is used by workstation?

  I just bought a new machine with a quad core CPU.

  I know that Workstation only supports a maximum of two hearts. What I don't know is: what does that mean? That means, that if I would have four virtual machines running...

  1. they all do they share only the first two nuclei of the four cores available?
     .

  2. or each of them uses a distinct nucleus? (or two hearts arbitrary if I would assign two to a virtual machine)

  Please enlighten me!

  No, my computer supports a maximum of two virtual processors. All physical hearts are deemed be a CPU for the guest operating system. So if your have four hearts in your application assigned to the guest host and two vCPU it there always uses two cores at one point of time.

• Vista 64 bit does not use 4 GB of RAM on my Qosmio X 300

  Hello

  I've got Qosmio X 300-14 L loaded with Vista 64-bit.
  The operating system recognizes my 4 GB RAM (right click on computer then properties), but when I look at the Task Manager,
  the available physical memory is approximately 1 800 MB.

  What can I do?
  Thank you.

  Hello

  You use the factory settings or you have Visagt 64 bit from a disc of Microsoft?

  Normally Vista 64 bit you should be able to use all 4GB. You have also installed all updates for Vista, especially Service Pack 2?

• Should I expect the 64-bit version of 32bitor for my Windows 7 Ultimate? I have a Quad Core CPU.

  32 bit 64 bit. Windows 7 Ultimate. Quad Core Samsung.

  In general, it is preferable to use the 64-bit version, unless there are some very special reasons of not (for example, a critical piece of hardware that offers only one driver 32-bit).   He runs the 32-bit software and also allow the possibility of using 64-bit programs.  The 64-bit version can support more RAM and provides a path for growth in the longer term.

• Quad core CPU in x230T?

  I realize that even if it were possible, cooling would be the main problem. But I'm curious to know if, say, an i7-3612QM might work in the socket on the mobo. It is rated at 35W, just like the i5 - 3320 m currently installed in mine. Via Intel ARK, they should both work in the socket on motherboard of the x230T 988.

  All X series ThinkPad, compressed or not, have the welded CPU on the card and not recessed them. This has been the case since the time of X 20, nearly 15 years ago.

  So no, you can't swap the CPU unless you are in possession of re-balling appropriate as well as the skills to use it.

  In addition, BIOS support for a quad-core processor must exist, which I doubt is the case on X series.

• Impossible to run the 64-bit Intel Xeon 5130 CPU clients

  Hi all

  We have a small group of two boxes of DELL.

  A newer PowerEdge R710 with processor Intel Xeon 5550 and the other older

  PowerEdge 2950 with processor Intel Xeon 5130.

  Both running ESX 4.0

  both platforms should support 64-bit OS.

  When you create a customer I can not select a for example Windows 2008 64-bit. When I start this machine on my PE 2950, it starts, it loads are installing windows, DVD and shortly after I receive a message saying that he needs a 64-bit processor. ??

  Pass the customer to another host, installs and works fine. We saw the same thing with Windows 7 64 bit (and probably with the 64 bit OS).

  I just restarted this host and went into the BIOS to see if the CPU has been in support of 64-bit, it was. And if the VT CPU technology has been activated, it was.

  Still no luck, however.

  Someone at - it an idea?

  Your processor supports Vt - x ( http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=27216).  Have you tried a BIOS upgrade?  Also, check out this document, http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-8978

• XW8400: only one of both put in correspondence Quad-cores working in the xw8400 workstation

  I inherited a xw 8400 there two matched CPU intel quad core CPU. Both work but not together I can exchange both at about and work them both but if I put one in slot 1, if I put one in slot 1, it works fine if I put both in a single work watch, if I put one in the 2 slot that it doesn't work.

  I checked the pins on slot2 with a very fine microscope and everything is as it should be-free pins bent etc..

  "I was told to update my Bios I tried to do, unfortunately without success as the flashrom will not recognise the CD/DVD-rom or USB it just says that it" is missing or the file is corrupted "

  My question is:-is my motherboard? as no other issues are obvious and why my flashrom system doesn't recognize my media? I have win 7 pro 64 16 GB of ram in the correct locations. It takes forever to load and want to know why the 2nd CPU does not appear in my system information?

  not really a geek, but will include the simple answers... Thank you

  Thanks Big_Dave,

  As you suggest I have it posted on the Enterprise business Forum. I would add that this is good advice that I can see other messages on the queries for the XW8400 so you guided me to the right place.

  Thank you for your help in stopping swim autour in darkness.

  Keep up the good work as I am new here and already impressed by volunteers that take an interest in other situations (which need a solution!...) I never see a 'problem' just need to know how / if you can FIX IT)

  Once again my thanks

• Problem opening Composition in CS4 on Windows 7 (which worked in Vista) 32-bit

  Hello
  
  Merry Christmas! I hope that everyone is having a better that I am right now!
  
  With little information about what I have and what is happening.
  
  My machine is a machine made to measure with a motherboard ASUS P5KC, Intel Quad Core Q6600 @ 2.40 GHz and 4.00 GB of RAM DDR3 with an NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX.
  
  Yesterday, when I was working on this video, I got Windows Vista Home 32-bit installed. All fonts, images, plug-ins, etc were there, works very well. The project has had several compositions with some 3D elements.
  
  Somehow this computer has been infected with a nasty little trojan; clean it enough to get my files out there and make a backup.
  
  I then installed Windows 7 Professional 32 - bit, re-installed After Effects CS4, copied all video Copilot Evolution and Pro Scores, sound effects designer and Action Movie Essentials to the machine; installed fonts and plugins again.
  
  I tried to start After Effects and open the project; everything was good, he acknowledged that there were 53 of the elements that are not found (not coupled images). However, once it has loaded and it started to load the last composition I had opened (which is be the only big enough with 3-d elements), it would just freeze and become 'unresponsive. '
  
  I tried this several times; no luck.
  
  I then started a new project and the project "drug" existing to the new. This allowed me to open the project without opening the previous composition. I was then able to add a link to images and sounds. I was then able to open the other compositions, but at the time wherever I tried to open the composition that I tried earlier, it froze again.
  
  So I thought, well maybe, I can just make or make a power of Attorney, etc.
  
  The two have not. Even when I add to render queue, as soon as it adds, before I even click start making it freeze.
  
  I thought maybe it was a problem of memory; I did some stuff to allow After Effects use all the memory and all the hearts of the procesor, check the status of the OpenGL and allow him to use 80% of the physical RAM on the video card - still no luck.
  
  I tried the project to clean and purge from memory; no luck.
  
  I can post the project file ASP for anyone who is ready to help.
  
  Maybe install a 64 bit version of Windows 7 would be useful, but I do not understand what this question is the steam of.
  
  Thank you
  Travis

  The problem seems to be in the publication named "Running". When I tried to open this composition, After Effects has entered an attempt apparently endless to make the first image, using a lot of CPU power, but not a lot of memory to do so. So, this doesn't seem to be a memory problem. I was able to open the composition by pressing the Caps Lock key before doing anything; This tells After Effects to not try to render frames. If I had to troubleshoot this further, I would open this publication, disable all layers and then turn them back on one at a time to see which are the source of the problem.

  I hope that's enough to help you get started.

  BTW, I checked this on Windows Vista 64-bit. I would be really surprised if it had something to do with the specific operating system.

• Should I to update to Windows 7 or 8 on my Inspiron 530 w/Vista 32-bit Home

  I have an Inspiron 530 w 4 MB of Ram and an Intel Quad Core 2 Q6600 2.4 GHz w/Windows Vista 32-bit Home.  Should what Windows OS I upgrade to 7 or 8.

  I run the upgrade wizard for Windows 8 and received a red x on "network connections Intel (r) 12.4.38.0.  Don't know what that means.  The Windows 7 upgrade assistant came back fine.

  Hi Snowgolf,

  The Red Cross means that you cannot use Windows 8 in your pc. You can have problems with an upgrade. You'd be better off buying a full installation of Windows 7.

• Satellite A350 - Question about RAM and Vista 32 bit - 64 bit

  I bought a Satellite A350 Tiger Direct. He moved with Windows Vista 32 bit.
  It is capable in my view up to 8 GB of Ram. Vista 32 bit does support 3.

  All reviews on this laptop online say that it came with 64-bit and 400 GB of memory.
  Mine came with only 230 GB of memory and 32 bit vista. I ran Belarc advisor, and he tells me that my computer is 64-bit ready.

  Is this true? Why is - this me came not with Vista 64 bit?
  I want to upgrade my ram but with 32 bits, which is not possible and according to Microsoft you cannot update 32-bit to 64-bit.
  So should I buy Vista 64-bit upgrade? (for around 300 euros!). Is this in any way about this?

  What are my options? I want 4 GB of Ram or more really bad...

  What Satellite A350 do you have exactly?

  AFAIK the most recent series of Toshiba laptop pre-installed a dual operating system;
  In this case, you can choose between Vista 32-bit or 64-bit.

  To obtain the 64-bit, you will need to restart the laptop and have to press F8.
  Here you must choose the option to fix my computer. Then select Toshiba HDD recovery and finally, you should see the option which would be you can toggle between the 32 and 64 bit.

  Usually the Vista 32 bit supports 3.2 GB RAM.
  Only the 64-bit Vista will be able to recognize 4 GB and more.
