• upgrade laptop computer DV7 AMD cpu of two to four hearts

  I have a HP DV7 4xxxus (I forgot the exact model number is not at home) with a Dual AMD Phenom II N620 processor 2.80 GHz and was thinking about upgrading to a processor 2.20 GHz AMD Phenom II Quad N970. I've read enough up to this point to ensure that it is possible, but what other factors should I be aware of? I know that this model had a tendency to overheat, but I personally have never had my overheating at the stop. I keep the back elevated to get more air and took part more than once to clean the fan and replace the thermal compound (Arctic Silver) without incident. I use my machine mainly for the compilation of the Android ROM, so believe me when I say that this machine were put to the test the way the most extreme I can think of (the two hearts run at near 100% for hours at a time). I build these Roma back to back sometimes, and my laptop turns on for a period of days. I know it's clearer at the fair and buy new, but this machine gave me good years of use, and if I could find a good deal on a processor, I'd be willing to give it a try. Both processors have the same characteristics (2.0 MB of L2 cache, bus front end to 1 333 MHz, 35W 3.6 gigatransfers per second), so I don't foresee any problems on that front, but what the BIOS? It will need to be updated? Where can I find a viable for this new processor bios update? Can I upgrade the GPU as well? There are other concerns that I think not? Any help would be appreciated...

  Here's the appropriate Manual:

  Manual

  The N970 is supported. You don't need to update the BIOS or something. The motherboard is configured to use this processor. It is generally advisable to reload the operating system after an upgrade of major processor that Windows can have parameters of system based on the original processor and you can lose some of the benefits of the upgrade if you do load a new OS, but apart from that there is nothing really to do.

  Hello

  Not like office, almost all laptops have soldred CPU from the motherboard. Change of CPU implies a change of the motherboard or the entire machine. On the other hand, you don't win much, wouldn't that CPU. Need more RAM, new video card...

  It is much cheaper to buy a new machine.

• Upgrade laptop computer (17-e040us)

  Basically, I want to upgrade my laptop (HP Pavilion e040us 17) to more fast/more smooth fun by buying a few updates for it.

  I want to upgrade my RAM, CPU and HARD drive, but I do not know what is compatible with my laptop.

  I use my laptop for web browsing, playing games (WoW, sims, of flight-1st person shooter) and music recording/editing in the case where you need to know to what follows.

  On the HP site, it says my memory is upgadable to 8GB maximum and there are two slots, does that mean per slot so I can get a total of 16 GB of memory? I only ask because I checked on another site (http://www.crucial.com/index.aspx) and who says I have 16 GB max mem.

  I also want to upgrade my processor to an i5 or i7, which would improve my performance without breaking the Bank.

  And finally the HARD drive. If I update this id as a 1 TB HARD drive. I hear THAT SSD is more expensive, but are faster. Is it possible to switch between them? Or would that be too complicated and I should let my only 750 GB HARD drive?

  (Also I am planning buy parts and have a professional install them correctly)

  Thanks in advance
  See you soon

  You're going to break the Bank. Everything you say you want to do will cost more than a new laptop. Your laptop has 6 GB of RAM. I run 2 gig module and put into a 4 second gig module identical to the first. Who will bump the memory speed significantly by allowing two-channel operation. Then I would eliminate the slow drive 5400 RPM and get at least one hard drive 7200 rpm or even a hybrid drive. These two upgrades might cost $150, but will result in the best bang for the buck. Forget upgrading the CPU. This is where the spending goes to bed and will return in fact less bang for the buck than the upgrade of RAM and HARD drive. And you can do the memory and hard drive upgrades yourself, without having to pay someone. If you need help with that let us know.

• Upgrade laptop computer Ram

  I have a hp laptop 1301 tx and I want to know my upgradation ram on the properties I have seen my type of ram is D 1333 ram and I ordered for kingston 2 GB ram which has

  Type of memory: 2 GB (64 x 256 MB) 1333 MHz DDR3 SO-DIMM

  Memory StandardDR3-1333/PC3-10600

  It will work with my laptop?

  Yes, it works perfectly.

  Since you have a 64-bit operating system, you might have installed a 4 GB chip and had 6 GB.

  One day you can install 2 x 4 GB and 8 GB if you want.

  Here is the link to the service manual. Procedures for removal and replacement of memory are in Chapter 4.

• Upgrade laptop computer processor Compaq Presario CQ57

  Hi I'm looking on youtube for hours and can not find a guide on how to find processor and replace it someone could give me a step by step on how to do.

  This is an Adobe product, if you look at the bare minimum CPU it takes to run it it says 2.0 GHz.

  http://www.Adobe.com/CA/products/premiere-elements/tech-specs.html

  So with your current system, you would need to upgrade to your processor.

  Here's your guide to maintenance and service.

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02948186.PDF

  If you look on pages 19 and 20, it shows what will work, but you also need to install a different heatsink of heat/cooling assembly if you move to an i5 (not so easy to find).

  Even if you improve things in general, I think your machine is going to be difficult to run any sort of video editing software, you can consider a better machine.

  You can download any Adobe product and use their free trial version and make sure.

  1 of 3. Theoretically you can upgrade the processor as follows:

  Processor Intel Core i7-820QM 1.73 GHz, SC turbo up to 3.06 GHz with 8 MB of L2 cache
  and 1333 MHz front side bus (FSB)

  Frankly I would not worth it. The workload and potential will weigh much more heavily in the balance than the gain of performance negigible. An SSD would be much easier and would provide even more performance gain in any other game.

  The GeForce 230 M is the best graphics available in this series, so there is no motherboard better. Graphic design is not a replaceable but welded card to the motherboard. There is only one available for this model fan. Perhaps you could improve its performance with best chocks composed or perhaps thermal thermal but it's a cutting-edge engineering.

• Unable to print with my dell a920 printer now that I upgraded my computer dell laptop to Vista 64-bit of Windows 7 64-bit. Help.

  Recently, I upgraded my computer laptop studio dell for Windows 7 64-bit to Vista 64 bit and now my Dell a920 all-in - One Printer does not work.  It works well with XP and Vista.   The dell site says that it is not compatible with Windows 7.  So frustrating. Please tell me Windows has a solution for me and they don't leave me high and dry.

  That's why we're always checking the availability of compatible devices
  newest & brightest exploitation
  System. Only Dell (or one that makes the printer for Dell
  before it's new wording) can provide the necessary drivers. This is not a
  Problem of Windows 7.

  Hello world

  I'm Kevin and im a beginner here, please help me. I have a laptop HP Pavilion DV6t-3000 Special Edition

  CPU: Intel Core i7-720QM

  RAM: 8 GB (upgrade from 6 GB to 8 GB)

  HDD: 750 GB

  VGA: Ati HD 5650 1 GB

  I wonder if I could spend my cpu of the first generation (i7-720QM) of new generation of cpu - i7-2670QM as?

  Thanks a lot for your help!

  Hi, Kevin:

  No, you can't, because your laptop computer has a chipset Intel series 5 for the i7-720QM.

  Your laptop needs Intel chipset series 6 a second generation core i7 quick time image.

  Hi,

  I see you have a subscription of photography under the enamel even as with the forums.

  You can have the creative cloud installed and signed in on two computers as long as you don't use it on one at a time. Download and install as you did on the first computer, sign in to your Adobe account on the Adobe using your Adobe ID website, download the desktop app from clouds, then download the software. Sign on a computer that should not be used: log in and log out of the desktop Adobe Creative Cloud application

  You can download the installer for Creative Cloud from here:

• Can I install / upgrade to Windows 7 Professional on a laptop computer which had XP Pro installed but has been erased?

  Sister bought acheap laptop computer with XP Pro license key sticker, but the HARD drive has been erased.  If she can get her hands on a XP Pro CD it can install using this key?  Furthermore, she has a DVD Win 7 Pro by another PC - can she use this instead?

  Depends on and probably not.

  If the license for xp is OEM which is the only version, you can use to re - install (if you have retail, or Corp.), it will not work or be legal.

  If she has a gain of 7 dvd it will have a 'key' for her play.  If this isn't the case, it does not.

• Adapter network on laptop computer Lenovo IdeaPad U350, works do not since upgrading to Windows 7.

  Hello.
  Am running windows 7 on a laptop computer Lenovo IdeaPad U350, but experiencing problems with the network adapter. Wireless connection works, but I can not connect via the direct cable connection. All of the updates were made and in device, the network card Manager (Broadcom 802.11 g network adapter) seems to work fine, BUT still I can't connect. I downloaded the driver from the manuvacturer (Lenovo) and installed. He still does not!

  Any ideas how to solve this problem? I am currently connected to the internet via a wireless connection, but need a wired connection.

  PLEASE HELP :)

  Here's a solution - eventually had to resort to using the Ethernet coz I had to transfer massive amounts of data and using the WiFi was just a bad idea.

  Agree with the above the drivers Lenovo doesn't have just a whole bunch of stuff (unzip, etc, etc) and curiously does not seem to go through the process to INSTALL anything... disappointment.

  For those of you who know how to get to the old plant 'Disc' (Yes, they still exist in Win7), you can get your hands on the drivers here http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/netlink_k57.php--est comes with the good old INF files to tell the system what and where to install

  Go to disc (fuck..... another Google process [Bing since I'm on a MS Web site] the answer)...

  0 have the Admin rights
  1. open your browser.
  2. right click on computer / my computer > properties > Device Manager
  3. I hope that the offending devices (Ethernet in this case) shows prominently in the other category
  4 click on it > properties
  5 looking around for the the driver update button
  6 browse my computer for training software
  7. just choose from devices... (blah blah)
  8 have Disk (tada!)
  9. then point just where you have unpacked the driver with the permission of Broadcomm files.

  Hope that helps.

• I downloaded iTunes on a new laptop computer and he allowed. First of a süden, I can't sync my iPhone 6. What can I do?

  I downloaded iTunes on a new laptop computer and he allowed. All of a sudden, I can't sync my iPhone 6. What can I do?

  If your iOS device does not appear in iTunes, try the following:

  1. Open Control Panel > Device Manager
  2. Plug in your device
  3. Locate Bus USB Controllers > Apple Mobile Device USB Driver.
     It is also possible that the device may appear under imaging devices, portable devices or other devices or as a device USB of MTB.
     
  4. Right-click and select software update of the driver...
  5. Click Browse my computer for driver software
  6. Go to C:\Program Files\Common Apple Mobile Device Support\Drivers or
     C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
  7. Click on let me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computer
  8. Click on Apple Mobile Device USB Driver
  9. Click Next, then close and exit the Device Manager

  To step 3 above, open the Device Manager. Expand one of the articles that are listed.

  • USB Bus controllers
  • Imaging devices
  • Portable devices
  • Other devices

  Plug in the appliance. You should hear the telltale Windows sound device connection and a Division must acquire a new entry. This should be your device. It cannot be labelled properly at this point. If you do not hear a suspicious noise cable damaged.

  Or try If iTunes does not your iPad, iPhone or iPod - Apple Support Apple version of the above opinion.

  If not try a complete tear down and rebuild iTunes in accordance with the resolution of the problems with iTunes for Windows updates. 64-bit users might also try the build replacing iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for older video cards) which is sometimes a useful workaround.

  Or try to go back to the last version of iTunes that has worked for you. See the programs installation of iTunes to download links. If you roll back to 12.4.0.119 to 12.3.3.17 or 12.3.2.35, for example, then you will also need restore the database of the library in the manner described in the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library. The tip makes suggestions to reintroduce recent purchases, so at worst, you lose a few meters or a newly created playlist.

• Laptop computer without OS and revovery partition deleted

  Hi all.  I help a friend who recently bought a used Dell laptop which seems to be in good working condition, however, it won't start.  The former owner told him that they wiped the hard drive prior to the sale, which is always a good idea.  The problem is that they have deleted partition recovery as well.   So, I headed to Dell support on the resolution of the problem.  Given that the PC is out of warranty their only solution was to sell him a new bundled software.  So, as always, seems to be the case, when everything has failed, MS is going to save the day.  Can someone tell me on what options are available to get a working copy and legal Windows working on his PC?  According to the tags on the PC, it was initially delivered with pre-installed Vista Basic.  He would be happy with just a basic OS work for now and upgrade at a later date if he decides the computer is worth the upgrade.  We are not looking for pirated copies to install, just something the OEM license can activate.  Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions that you guys can offer.

  One more quick question.  When a used PC is sold, the OEM license remains with the PC?  I'm sure that it cannot be legally transferred to another computer so I assumed that he transferred to the new owner.

  Hello

  If the computer/laptop comes with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.) or is licensed to OEM System Builders, that the product key that came with the computer/laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.

  OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) and the license OEM System Builders are related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when machine who dies.

  Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

  And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  You can borrow and use a DVD Vista Microsoft (selling retail or OEM System Builders License), which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  The COA sticker is either or in the battery compartment on the underside of the laptop.

  With a desktop computer, it's on the side, the back or the top of the computer case.

  

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as well as 32-bit and 64-bit editions different DVD lights.

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
