Windows XP OEM EULA (Pavilion a400y)

My father-in-law has a hp Pavilion a400y with Win XP (SP1) OEM which is really slow.

If I'm working him up to 2 GB of memory and to change its processor Celeron to a faster processor of the same socket /(bus bandwidth) will disable I its MS Windows OEM license?

No, only a motherboard change will cause disabling XP OEM. The motherboard plug said max for memory 1 GB, but Crucial 2 GB HERE said. HP sometimes leans toward conservative, and Crucial camp offer guarantee of compatibility. They have never failed me. I noticed that his machine seems to have shipped with 256 GB of good memory_not. Still a helping hand for 1 GB would give great performance boost.

It might be a little more difficult to find a Pent 4 Northwood 400/533fsb.

He executed a full Destructive Restore? Installation of XP probably degrades years of accumulation, usually solved by a new installation.
