• Questions about upgrading a Compaq Presario CQ5205Y desktop computer system

  Good evening

  I'm about to embark on my first serious upgrade of my computer, and I thought it would be a good idea to arrive before I get too far down the rabbit hole (and knocked out my Internet access).  What motivates the need to upgrade, it's that the system tends to lag when I programs using a lot of memory running and I think I can give him a decent boost on reasonably low budget.

  I have a desktop PC Compaq Presario CQ5205Y Win7-64 bit without modification until running.  I'm lookin to upgrade the CPU and the RAM of the machine.  For ease of reference, here is the page describing the system:

  http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?objectID=c01859812&lang=en&cc=us&Conte...

  For the CPU, I found a good price on an AMD Phenom X 4 9750 2.4 GHz Quad-Core CPU (HD9750WCJ4BGH).  What I read, it meets the necessary criteria (socket AM2 + 95W, etc.).  I still need to determine if it needs a fan or non - language marketing indicates that it is not), but assuming that it works, here are my questions for this update:

  1 should I update the BIOS on the card, or change one of its parameters to recognize the new chip?

  2. with regard to the installation, I think that it's pretty simple - unlock/remove the Semprom LE-1300 that is there now, carefully align the new processor Phenom X 4 (Golden to golden triangle triangle) and tighten in place. Then, if necessary, install the fan/radiator.  Is this correct, or am I missing something important and potentially catastrophic?

  For the RAM, I have not bought, but I think I need barrettes 2x2gb DDR2 memory unbuffered, non - ECC memory.  I'm showing my ignorance here, but I imagine that rain is better in this case and is much better than the PC2-5300 memory PC2-6400.  If Yes, then maybe something like (or more affordable if I can find it):

  http://www.TigerDirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6252562&CSID=_61

  Once again, a couple of very similar questions:

  1. do I need to change BIOS settings after I installed memory or if the automatic detection system?

  2. I swapped memory on other computers before so I guess that this motherboard is always the same - unclip/dethrone the existing memory, slide into the new and snap it in place.  Does this sound right?

  In my view, which covers everything I know, but if anyone has any other advice or warning indication, they would certainly be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance for help a beginner brave new waters.

  Processor:

  (1) no updated BIOS available for this model

  (2) more or less correct... you will need a HSF (heatsink & fan) for the new processor and a thermal paste. After the installation of the CPU, you apply the thermal is dedicated to the then install the HSF. The stock will be Sempron HSF to adapt and work but can not dissipate the extra heat

  (3) it is one of these models that will accept AM3 Athlon II and Phenom II CPU (see CPU upgrade in specs), but if it is supported depends on the revision of the motherboard and the BIOS version. Your choice of Phenom 9750 is a sure way to go

  Memory:

  (1) once again, no BIOS update available for this model

  (2) sounds right

  (3) you can look at Newegg.com best prices

• Presario sg-3320il: upgrade of RAM Compaq presario sg-3320IL

  Hello

  My office - compaq presario sg3320il originally supplied with 1 GB ddr2 RAM (2 x 512 MB sticks). I bought a 2 GB Transcend DDR2 800 Mhz RAM stick (model number: JM800QLU - 2G). It worked perfectly when I removed the old sticks pre-installed and added this new RAM stick only (IE, with a total of 2 GB of memory). I bought another stick of 2 GB of RAM - same brand, same frequency, same model number too and now when that is added with the older 2 GB of RAM, it does not work properly. Some weird appears on the start screen for half the time and sometimes when I restart the system, he gets up to system boot and then hangs or restarts.

  The two 2 GB RAM when used only work perfectly. Product specifications are here as well as the news of upgrade memory - http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/Compaq-Presario-SG3320IL-Desktop-PC/3697170/model/3707607/docume...

  Help, please

  Hello again @kau_shik_51094,

  In the case of 2 RAM sticks not even work together, I suspect that the slot on your motherboard is damaged.

  Really, there may be another explanation that your computer works with both sticks independently of each other, but not together and since they are the exact same it leaves only the motherboard as the problem.

  I hope this helps. Thanks again for your post on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

• Upgrade CPU Compaq Presario CQ60-216TX

  Hello - looking for help with information for a possible CPU upgrade

  Re: Compaq Presario CQ60 - 216TX laptop...

  Motherboard is HP 488338-001 alternative No. Its one with onboard nVidia graphics and an hdmi output.

  Here is an example of eBay:

  http://www.eBay.com/ITM/HP-Compaq-G50-CQ50-CQ60-Intel-laptop-motherboard-488338-001-tested-/39059073...

  The current processor is an Intel Pentium Dual Core T4200 2.0 Ghz, 800 MHz FSB, socket P...

  See: http://www.cpu-world.com/sspec/SL/SLGJN.html

  The options available in the link of the CQ60 User Guide: point 13 down:

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02985882.PDF

  relate only to the:

  CPU T3200 http://www.cpu-world.com/sspec/QB/QBNT.html

  and CPU T3400 http://www.cpu-world.com/sspec/QG/QGFM.html

  processors respectively both with a 667 Mhz front bus and 1 MB of L2 cache

  The question is what the CPU can be used as a possible substitute for a performance on the T4200 gain?

  The following text appears to be very similar to the T4200, but roll up a gear clock spec. None of them would be viable and of course even wouldn't she do on such an older machine now? The BIOS would support a higher clocked CPU speed?

  T4300 (2.1 GHz), T4400 (2.2 Ghz), T4500 (2.3 Ghz), - all ran 800 Mhz bus speed and 1 MB of L2 cache

  http://Ark.Intel.com/products/42925/Intel-Pentium-processor-T4500-1M-cache-2_30-GHz-800-MHz-FSB?q=T4...

  CPU is not mentioned on any other ideas that could also work with the specified above mother card would also be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Yes, there is a point in going more slowly so that your pc supports dual channel.
  You have 800 MHz if you hace two-channel memory will clock at 533 Mhz and then multiplied twice which is 1066 Mhz
  It is a parameter which allocates memory of your cpu (long story)
  and as I can see, your PCH supports 1066 Mhz which will make it intresting.

• Upgrade a Compaq Presario SR5710F desktop computer

  Hello, I'm recovering because as far as I can get out my Compaq Presario SR5710F desktop... right now there windows vista service pack 2 32-bit. The processor is an AMD Athlon 64 dual core 4450e to 2.3 GHz with 3 GB of ram at 800 MHz. First of all, since the processor is 64-bit, I was wondering if a windows 7 64 upgrade is recommended... Secondly, I know that even though I have a 64-bit processor, the maximum capacity of ram I have is 4 GB due to the motherboard, but with this card mother, is possible to increase the speed of greater than 800 MHz ram (for the motherboard specifications are hard to find). I was also thinking to replace the graphics card, but what I am seeing that will probably require a different diet and I am on a limited budget. Any suggestion? Please take into consideration the fact that this upgrade is not for games etc, its a home computer that I'm trying to be as updated as possible for a minimal cost. I am realistic, however, and I know it's an old PC. More I am not worried about existing programs (32-bit), I certainly intend on a new installation

  RickCraw,

  Here are the specifications of your Compaq Presario SR5710F desktop computer and its card mother MCP61PM-HM (Iris8). According to the specification, this model has PCIe x 16 graphics card slot and a 250 watt power supply.

  (1) most retail graphics cards require a 300 watts or more big power supply system to work properly. Install a new graphics card to detail will require the replacement of power supply as well.

  (2) Yes, you can install Windows 7 64 bit on this computer. I recommend the upgrade of RAM at a minimum of 4 GB for use with a Windows 64-bit operating system.

  (3) NO, you cannot change the speed of the RAM. Your system is limited to the following specifications/configurations of memory;

  Dual channel memory architecture

  Two connectors DIMM DDR2 240-pin

  Supported DIMM types:

  PC2-4200 (533 MHz)

  PC2-5300 (667 MHz)

  PC2-6400 (800 MHz)

  Memory non - ECC, unbuffered

  Supports DIMM DDR2 2 GB modules

  Supports up to 4 GB (2 x 2 GB = 4 GB)

• Upgrade memory - Compaq Presario SR1630NX

  Planning the upgrade on my HP - Compaq Presario SR1630NX memory. Before buying a product of memory, I want to make sure it is compatible with the Compaq. Info on the Compaq Presario SR1630NX memory is as follows: 1) 512 MB (2 x 256) memory installed in the 4 slots 2 DIMM; (2) 2 4 DIMM slots open. (3) type of memory is 184 pins DDR SDRAM. It is a bit confusing when you try to sort the different products available memory. Identified the PNY Memory twin 2048 MB PC3200 DDR 400 MHz memory (2 x 1024MB), Model #MD2048KD1-400. Memory is this product compatible and recommended? Otherwise, any suggestions?

  Hello

  JJM says:
  I ordered the Crucial memory upgrade kit. Then will come the real installation. I'm a little tentative trying to change modules of memory because I've not done this before. Are there problems I should be aware of that I open the SR1630NX, find the motherboard and memory sticks, remove and install new?

  It's really very simple.

  All it takes is patience and attention to the location of the index in the module and the game inside the DIMM slot.

  Unplug the power connector from the power outlet.

  Open the case.

  touch something metal in the case with your hand to dissipate static electricity from your body. I actually always use an anti-static wristband.

  Press the tabs on each side of a module locking and it comes out.

  use the thumb and forefinger on each end of a module and remove it carefully.

  during the installation of the modules to place them in the same locations you deleted the 'old' of.

  Search the index of the module tab and the tab corresponding inside the ALS DIMMt.

  Use the slots on the inside and under the locking tabs guide to guide the module in the DIMM connector correctly

  now, use your thumbs to the top end of the module for shake it gently in the DIMM slot.

  you will know that it is in place as you feel / hear a click.

  now check to make sure that the locking tabs are in place at the ends of the module.

  Repeat the process with the other modules

  That's all there is to it.

  Kind regards

• upgrade sr1320nx compaq presario desktop from windows xp to windows 7?

  Graphics card and all the drivers necessary to convert the Compaq Presario SR1320NX Desk Top of Windows XP to Windows 7, which is compatible with the Aero display system?

  baseball2013,

  Here are the specifications of your Compaq Presario SR1320NX desktop computer and its (salmon) K8S - THE motherboard. According to the specification, this model was presented for sale on or around 12/01/2004 and is unlikely to be fully compatible with Windows 7. At a minimum, you will need to install a Windows 7 "Aero" capable AGP 8 x video card. You may experience other problems as well. After I installed Windows 7, update complete including SP1 and all the updates/drivers that it provides.

• Compaq presario cq5500f: Cpu - amd phenom x 4 quad core 9950

  Hello

  I recently bought the quadruple-heart phenom x 4 125w 9950 and wanted to update my one heart amd sempron 140.

  I bought with the intention to upgrade my compaq presario cq5500f so that I can use it as a gaming pc.

  However, when I put the cpu in the pc it says no "supported installed Cpu" and then it stops automatically after.

  Is this a driver problem? Is this a bios problem? Is this a problem of design of thermal power?

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Here IS THE page of the motherboard and the choice of the CPU.  He says that the CPU should be TDP: 95W processor said is the AMD Phenom X 4 9950, which is a 125W CPU.  I suspect that's the reason why the BIOS claims not supported CPU.  OEM motherboards are picky about the card like that.
