Windows 7 can run on CPU Intel pentium 4 with 2.93 ghz speed?

The configuration of the system is:

Intel pentium 4 2.93 GHz, 1.2 GB of RAM.

Yes, it can, but if you can move it, I double the amount of RAM of 2 GB.

The 32-bit version of Windows 7 would be also sufficient for such a configuration.

System requirements:

* 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster 32-bit (x 86) or 64-bit (x 64) processor

* 1 gigabyte (GB) of RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit)

* 16 GB of disk space available (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)

* Peripheral figure DirectX 9 with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver

Also run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor:

The upgrade to Windows XP?

Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

 

More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

  • Windows 7 can run games for vista or xp

    I'm a gamer have a count with vista, but a lot of my games for xp do not work and do not work properly. So I was wondering if I should get windows 7 or just simply stick with vista for now, because I want something that can run all my games.

    Hey bradman72,

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers site!

    Windows 7 has a mode called the program compatibility mode.

    Program compatibility is a mode in Windows that allows you to run programs written for earlier versions of Windows. Most programs written for Windows Vista are also running Windows 7, but some older programs might run poorly or not at all.

    If an older program does not work, the first, and easier, to try is the resolution of the problems of compatibility of programs. It can automatically detect and fix common issues that prevent older programs to install or run correctly.

    Check out the link for more details below:

    What is program compatibility?
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-is-program-compatibility

    To run the program compatibility troubleshooter,

    1. open the program compatibility problems by clicking on the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting, and then click Troubleshooting. Under programs, click on run programs for previous versions of Windows.
    2. follow the instructions in the troubleshooting.

  • Toshiba 655 / windows 7 can run windows 10

    655 Toshiba with windows 7 never be able to run windows 10.  The list on the website of Toshiba is not Satellite 655 as one that is capable of upgrade to Windows 10.  My question is this: that I can do for this laptop to be upgraded to Windows 10, or he will never be able to run Windows 10?  I expect updates on your part, Toshiba, other owners a L655 and other forums with an answer to my problem!  I saw anything regarding my problem.

    I'm not someone who has the money to buy a new PC, and I don't like Windows 7.  But I read recently that you people will more or less force all the world to Win 10 and I did not speak of those of us who want to win 10, but own systems which are not compatible with it. I and others with the same question will be able to book a copy of Windows 10 once the year of free updates are passed?

    I checked 10 Windows and it looks like a BONE I could if more time to check it out. However being a faithful disciple of Microsoft, I always choose Windows NT as my first pic and Windows 7 as my second choice. They are almost identical and are very user friendly for those of us with the technology background. Until I retired from teaching, I had the opportunity to have and use Windows NT as an advantage for having participated in a seminar of MS-DOS in the early 1990s. Once I found Windows 7 I was just as happy with it as I was with NT. There, because I hope you can help me with my problem and send me a reply to the e-mail.

    Thank you for service and products that you have given the public has continued to progress in the world of technology.

    Looking forward to your response and once again thank you for everything you do.

    1st off there is a forum led by peers, you do not directly contact Microsoft in any form of official duties. The site can be read by anyone, including your personal information. The forum software can pick up and block email addresses but not your home address.

    2nd it is down to the individual manufacturer if they will support their legacy hardware running the software update. Microsoft provides the pre version of the software to them, but in this case, it is entirely to Toshiba, if they want to support a particular device. That they would get no special recipe if it requires some investment is extremely likely. Perhaps that the system runs Windows 10 without additional drivers, but the original system specifications is very low. Forum Toshiba may have someone who has tried and you could experience yourself, just make sure you have backup an recovery options before you start.

  • Equium M40X: Can I put the CPU for Intel Pentium M750

    Hello

    I have laptop Toshiba Satellite M40X-149.
    He has a * Intel Celeron M 370 * processor. Can I mount a * Intel Pentium M 750 * CPU on this motherboard?
    The processor is to another laptop Toshiba Satellite M40X-250.

    Can someone help me with this problem?

    Thank you very much.

    Ergu

    Hmmm usually replacement of CPU upgrade is not possible.
    In most cases, the don t match with the new CPU proprieties BIOS settings.
    I think that computers portable satellite M40X-149 and 250 SatelliteM40X were equipped with the same motherboard and possibly it's the new Intel Pentium M 750 processor could be supported.

    However, this is only a theory and my own experience there s always another story to put in practice.

    I wonder not if your laptop would not boot after upgrading CPU or would be overheating due to a higher internal temperature.

    So all you make are at your own risk.

    Good bye

  • Windows XP - Explorer runs constantly - could not delete Explorer. The CPU runs at around 70%, constantly.

    Computer is very slow. Repeatdly scanned for malware, Trojans and other horses. Now clean, but Internet Explorer works constantly, occupy the CPU at 70-100%. Tried to remove Internet Explorer. Cannot remove. Still works very slow computer socket. In addition, cannot defragment.

    Thanks for trying to answer.  I used Norton scan. Not sure, malicious software, but the system is now clean. The Explorer is still running the CPU at @ 70%. With nothing else open but the Manager of the tasks, the CPU still works. I thought that if I deleted the program explore it would interrupt the CPU of the race. The processor is running, and make the unit run very slowly.   Jay

    I'm still not, Jay.
    What do you mean by "delete"? Files can be deleted. But programs must usually be uninstalled, which is a different process.
    Also, you seem to be confusing the following three terms:
    Windows Explorer (which, as Brandon2003 pointed out) allows you to navigate your file system. When you open a folder (such as My Documents), you use Windows Explorer. In the Task Manager, it appears as explorer.exe.
    Internet Explorer allows you to surf on Web pages. In the Task Manager, it appears as iexplore.exe (and probably several instances of what appears there).
    The Explorer - I don't really know what it is!
    Both Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer are part of Windows XP. And even if you wanted to delete either, it would be impossible! Of course, you can choose to run an another browser like Firefox, Opera, Chrome, etc instead.
    I'm positive, that you still have malware.
    Certainly, you must run aswMBR:

    You must also perform scans with free versions of Scanner Portable SAS and MBAM.

    For the SAS portable scanner:

  • Can I switch to an Intel Pentium D 945 on a card mother Napa-GL8E?

    Hello, I have a HP Pavilion a6403w with an Intel Dual - Core processor E2160 (1.8 GHz) on a card mother Napa-GL8E. I would like to know if it is possible to switch to an Intel Pentium D 945 (3.4 GHz) on this motherboard. Before that everyone goes to the top and say no, I read a few post image Core 2 s running on this motherboard. And if an Intel Pentium D 945 would not work, what else would be a good upgrade for my PC? Thank you.

    (Edit: Opps, I posted this in the wrong forum.)

    Computer a6403w and Napa-GL8E pages care about motherboard;

    Type of socket: 775
    Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades
    Intel Core 2 Duo (Wolfsdale) E8xxx
    Core 2 Duo E6xxx until E6850 (Conroe)
    Pentium (Conroe) E2xxx series with Dual Core E2160 technology
    Core 2 Duo E4xxx (Conroe)
    Celeron 4xx series (Conroe) until Celeron 450

    Based on this information, the Pentium D 945 only is not supported on this platform. Referring to your "multiple posts reading" on quad-core Core 2 on the Napa, the information relates mainly to non - OEM versions (read no HP) of the Board of Directors. Sumsolstice mentions the internal docs showing micocode updated but does not purely and simply that it will work. The best processor would probably be the Core 2 Duo (Wolfsdale) E8xxx series.

  • Can I run a service at regular intervals with the Windows Task Scheduler?

  • Can I update to 10 32-bit of Windows if I run Windows 7Pro 64-bit?

    I trust currently some fairly old legacy 16-bit software and I can run on 7 Pro x 64 with XPMode - a bit of a pain, but it is essential software, so I do what I do...

    I had someone test install and it works on their Windows 10... they have x 64 processor and run x 86 windows 10... other than having to change the default installation locations, it works very well.

    My question is, if I have a 64-bit version of Windows 7 Pro installed on my laptop, when I'll update Windows 10, can I choose to install a 32-bit version?  And if I can't, will x 64 run 16-bit software?

    Help!

    Can I update to 10 32-bit of Windows if I run Windows 7Pro 64-bit?

    No, at least not directly.  To do this (to change your number of bits), you need to wipe your drive and reinstall the new type-bit Windows you want.  But you also have to do the upgrade directly from Windows 7, if you want Windows 10 to be free.  So, here's what to do:

    1. be sure to save all the files you want to keep and have your ready installers for your additional programs, you'll want to install again.

    2 - pass from 7 to 10.  You will stay on 64-bit.

    3 activate Windows so that he knows that this computer is allowed for the 10 free.

    4 - Download the Windows 10 Installer to a port USB or CD and use it to clean install 10 Windows (32 bit this time)

    Another option would be to retain the 64-bit, but start your 16-bit on a Hyper-v virtual machine software.  Best of both worlds and you will have to use more memory since 64-bit allows you to use more than about 3 GB of RAM.

  • I wonder if my laptop can run Photoshop on a regular basis.

    My laptop is NT900X3K-K35 Core™ i3, which is in 'Notebook 9' series of Samsung Eletronics.

    It said that its spec is as follows:

    : Processor CPU Intel® Core™ i3 5005U (2.00 GHz, 3 MB L3 Cache)

    Graphics card: Intel® HD Graphics 5500

    OS: Windows 10 home

    RAM: 4 GB LPDDR3 system memory at 1600 MHz (on BD 4 GB)

    Display: 33.7 cm SuperBright + 350nit QHD display LED (3200 x 1800)

    The question is, can I run Photoshop CC 2015 regularly?

    I think I can run once or twice per week (3 ~ 4 hours per each race), but I want to be able to run all day long.

    The seller who sold it says I can't (he said, my laptop will be down, one day, if I do), but the computer engineer I know well says that I can comfortably (it will just be run slowly).

    I'm so confused. Purchase CC 2015 and the purchase of older versions (by used or unused CD-ROM?) with a higher price of single payment (the use of CC 2 ~ 3 years)-who will be the best choice for me?

    Hi Kth,

    Please see the following link for the needs of the CC of Photoshop: Photoshop system requirements

    Also, what are the minimum requirements according to the link, and the system information you provided are very low for Photoshop to run smoothly.

    You might face from developed, Photoshop does not not with your current system specs.
