2.1GHz PowerPC G5 to intel cpu?

Is there anyway to change the 2.1 GHZ PowerPC G5 to an intel CPU?

Clone your hard drive at least twice:

Read how to sell a Mac*:

Make sure all your applications support Intel CPU and/or Mac OS X 10.7. If they don't all support Intel CPU, but most do, you'll probably want a used or refurbished Mac* that supports 10.6.8 or earlier as is listed on the bottom of:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2455
If they do all support the Intel CPU and Mac OS X 10.7 as is indicated by my tip below:

Either way, if you are migrating to an Intel Mac, read this tip on migrating data:

Virtual PC v7.0.2 and macbook pro with intel cpu

Is Microsoft Virtual PC v7.0.2 compatibble with intel cpu's?
thanks

Virtual PC for Mac will only work for the older PowerPC Macs.
For the newer Intel Macs look at either Boot Camp from Apple <http://www.apple.com/bootcamp> or Parallels <http://www.parallels.com>. The performance of Windows with either of these solutions far outweighs Virtual PC.
Hope this helps! bill

Difference in file handling on PowerPC macs and Intel macs

I have a Power PC mac at work and an intel mac at home. I've noticed that there is a difference in file handling between the two.
I cant pinpoint exactly what it is but has anyone else found this?

If your question is: Why is my work computer, which is over 7 years old, runs an old version of OS X (maybe leopard, maybe Tiger), with a now abandoned CPU architecture (PowerPC) different than my modern Mac Mini at home which runs Mountain Lion on an Intel CPU? Then my answer would be:
Your work computer is over 7 years old.
It runs an very old version of OS X, which is NOT Mountain Lion.
It runs on a CPU known as PowerPC, which is not been used by Apple since 2006.
Your home computer is more modern.
It runs OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
It runs on an Intel CPU.
I can't pinpoint exactly what your question is, but I suspect that this information may help you answer it or in the alternative, ask it differently.

Flash player 10.3.181.14 requires intel pentium 4 2.33ghz,I have intel CPU T2080@1.73ghz processor

I am trying to use Adobe Flash player at home to simply surf the web. For a long time I've been getting prompts to update Flash Player and however much I updated it the prompts kept on poping up. This got so frustrating I decided i'd try to fix the problem once and for all. So I checked the system requirements Adobe recommend for the update I had been downloading and found one of the minimum requirements to be an intel pentium 4 2.33ghz processor. I checked my system and I have only an intel CPU [email protected] processor. My question is, does this explain why I am having so many problems? I've tried to download an earlier version of Flash Player but I always get redirected to the 10.3.181.14 version. How it has come to this I am not quite sure but I must admit I have removed the Flash Player from my computer at the moment and I'm worried that it was a mistake because will I ever get a working version again? I am running Windows Vista 32bit and Internet Explorer 8 32bit. I am out of my depth so please be gentle!

You might have better luck if you post your question in the Flash Player forum...

MacBook Pro 2.2GHz -- which exactly Intel CPU is in there?

I've been reading the wikipedia on the differences and details on the Core Duo and Core 2 Duo CPUs and it made me thinking what model number of Intel CPU have I got in my system?
I've checked the specs both on the product pages as well as in the support section and they only read that it's got the Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz CPU, no details.
Does anyone know? Can anyone with MBP 2.2Ghz system and Windows on it run CPUz and report back here with the CPU details?
thanks!

I believe, on Apple's specifications for the MacBook Pro, it says what kind of processor it is...if it doesn't, there's surely ways to find out.
That's how the poster found out what kind of computer processing unit is packaged with the MacBook Pro. He then linked you after finding the processor on that page. It's quite simple, really.
Google It you may find some info.

Is it possible to run Labview ver 6.5 with PowerPC as the target CPU and VxWorks as the target operating system? If version 6.5 does not support this configuration, do any of the later versions support it?

I have an Ada executable that's creating a buffer of data that's being fed to a Labview executable that's displaying the data in a GUI. We're re-architecting some legacy system hardware and I'm just trying to figure out if this configuration is even possible.
Thanks

Hi,
I never heard of LabVIEW6.5. I only know of LV6i, LV6.1 and LV7.0...
Why don't you just call your next/regional NI sales rep?

I basically have an Ada executable and Labview executable that currently run on a Sun Machine with Solaris as the operating system. I'm re-architecting the system hardware and will be getting rid of the Sun Machine and Solaris. I'm don't have any issues with the Ada executable, but I'm not sure what configurations Labview supports.

Problem installing Palm Desktop 4.0 on Mac (Intel CPU + OS 10.5.6)

Hello,
When installing Palm Desktop 4.0 on my Mac (MacBookPro= Intel CPU + OS 10.5.6), the installation fails when trying to install the last files (.prc files). I cannot find any installation log to know what the problem exactly is. If I try anyway to run the software, Palm Desktop seems to run OK, but HotSync Manager fails (error related to "PPC-lib").
The problem is I am still using my old but fine Visor, so I don;t think I can install a more recent version of Palm Desktop.
Thanks for any help !
Post relates to: Visor Deluxe

Hello Walter and welcome to the Palm forums.
For such a new Mac, I'm fairly certain, you are going to have to use Palm Desktop 4.2.1 Rev D or later (I believe that Rev D is the latest) for Mac OS X. You can download Palm Desktop 4.2.1 Rev D for Mac OS from the Palm website. You may need to pick a newer Palm handheld to gain access to the download link. If that is the case, pick the Tungsten T5, it should require Palm Desktop 4.2.1 Rev D.

Mobile INTEL CPU supported in MEGA 651 ?

Hello,
will it be possible to insert a Mobile INTEL CPU, i.e. Mobile Intel® Celeron® processors, SL6VH, 1.3V, 1.80 GHz, 400MHz, 478pin PPGA, in the MSI MEGA 651 ?
I t seems the socket and the bus speed is ok.
But will the BIOS support this kind of CPU ?
Thanks for help.
Regards Bernd.

I ve got an 1,7 Ghz Mobile Pentium 4-M in my Mega 651, it definitly runs cooler then my older 1,7 Ghz Celeron, wich had 128 kb cach, not like pentium 4M wich has 4 times more cach (512 kb). Without modding the CPU, it runs at 1,5 (1,48) volt. Making the "bent pin trick" it runs on an extremly low volt - 1,08 (1,10) volt. This means lower heat output, then it's rated 30 Watt (wich it has at 1,3 volt, and 1,7 Ghz). The CPU now runs at 1,2 Ghz. At 1,1 volt I can overclock it to 1440 Mhz, but it runs safe, only at 1404 Mhz (at 4x117 mhz fsb). At 1404 Mhz I can even look at High definition video with PowerDVD. I also tried the 133 fsb trick, , isolating the Pin AD6 with nail polish, and it works fine at 1,48 volt and 1596 Mhz, and overclocked even at 1,7 ghz (142 Mhz fsb). But of course in this case the processor generates more heat. At 1200 MHZ it works without turning on the CPU fan, wich turns on only after hevy cpu loads (for example looking on DVD-s) You can browse the internet without the fan would turn on - you can hear only the sound of the hard disk, and the psu fan. I have got only one tiny problem, somtimes when I turn on my PC, after booting, the cpu fan does not stops, I dont know why, and it runs constantly, until I stop with Speedfan. I dont know why is doing this. Not allways, only sometimes, and I cant find out why...

PowerPC upgrade to Intel

Is one able to replace a processor from PowerPC to an Intel? If this were able to happen, could one upgrade and old PowerBook G4 running OS X Version 10.4.11 to Snow Leopard or Tiger (when it comes out)? And how would one go about replacing a processor if this was able to happen?

What do you want to do? The 2500K is supported by the Z77A-GD65 out of the box no matter which bios version it is at.

XEN VM - Applying Intel CPU microcode update fails

Hi,
I just installed OEL5 and I get the following message on boot:
Applying Intel CPU Microcode update: FATAL: Module microcode not found.
ERROR: Module microcode does not exist in /proc/modules [Failed]
From my quick Google search this is caused by the XEN virutualization. If you you get the [Failed] message then you have a serious problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks

The same happens booting a xen linux kernel on original RHEL and derivatives (such has centos)
I just ignored it, and AFAIK there's no problem with xen.
Just my 2 cents.
