AMD Processor to a Intel Proceesor upgrade DV6225us laptop w/ a 443775-001 mobo

My client's HP Pavilion dv6225us I was working on for a GPU issue has a Amd 64 AthlonX2 Cpu in it & he want's to know if I can upgrade it to a Intel dual core processor.
It has a 443775-001 motherboard installed that came with a AMD processor & single NVidia GPU chip.
He's trying to load some GM testing software on it for testing GM vehicle's & it's rejectiing it & causing error messages cause of the AMD processor not being capatible with the software.
He doesn't want to go out & purchase a new laptop if this can be performed instead.
Contacted AMD & Intel support but still waiting word back from them.
Thank's!
Any input would be helpful!

Hi, Brent:
The entire motherboard would have to be replaced in order to install an Intel processor.
More cost effective and easeir to purchase a used or new notebook with the Intel hardware the customer wants.

Yes. Here's the information:
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
             Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Only you can decide if it's worth doing.

I currently have OSX 10.4.11 and need to upgrade my software. I do not have Time Machine yet. My processor is an intel Core 2 duo. Do I have to upgrade to snow leopard 10.6.8 before upgrading to Mavericks?

Assuming your computer has the minimum system requirements yes, upgrade to 10.6.8 and then open the Mac App Store and upgrade to Mavericks. You can only get SL 10.6.x from Apple's online store, it is $20. Prior to upgrading to 10.6.x get an external HD and use a utility such as Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper and make a bootable clone of your system to safeguard all of your valuable data. In the event you have a problem the backup will be invaluable!!!!!
Considering your computer is at best a 2007 iMac I would STRONGLY recommend upgrading your RAM to 6GB, the maximum a 2007 machine can accommodate. You can buy this from either Crucial or OWC (www.macsales.com).
Another option is due to the age of your computer is considering buying a newer machine.

I have a newer MacBook Pro with an AMD processor. It is my understanding that Parallels can only be used on Mac's with Intel Processors. Is that true and if so does anyone have recommendations about how to have a windows side to my Mac

Then it either is a pirate clone or you are misinformed.
Apple Computer has never used AMD processors in its products.
However, the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) is a Radeon unit, which is an AMD subsidiary. Parallels, VMWare, VirtualBox will all work fine with the Intel Core i7 or i5 CPU that powers the Mac, and use the AMD Radeon GPU that drives the displays.

Upgrade ppc processor to a intell based processor?

I would like to upgrade my ppc g4 1ghz processor to an Intell based processor so I can run Ilife 08 (imovie 08) I also would like to be able to run boot camp, However I think I need to upgrade my processor. Any suggestions for what type? I have a g4 FW800 with a ppc g4 1ghz processor. NAy help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
It appears the system requirements page can only be found by Google:
http://www.apple.com/ilife/systemrequirements.html
iMovie can take either an Intel processor or a G5 processor 1.9 Ghz iMac or dual 2 Ghz processor PowerMac.
The G5 can't be added to the PowerMac G4.
A Mac Mini Intel model can be had new for just $600.
If you want iMovie 8 compatibility, I think that might just be your cheapest option. Nice thing is, the Mac Mini ships with iMovie out of the box.
You might be able to find a used or refurbished G5 iMac for less, but you have to watch out for the things on my FAQ*:

Can you upgrade PowerPC processor to an Intel Processor in iBook G4?

I was wondering whether you could upgrade the processor in an iBook G4 to an Intel processor as I need an Intel processor to sync my iPhone 4 to iTunes and update adobe flash player and I dont want to upgrade to a more newer MacBook as I do not have the money at the moment and if you could update the processor to an Intel processor where could I get it done?
I have an iBook G4
Running Mac OS X 10.4.11 (Tiger)

With a PowerPC processor

No such upgrades are possible.
On portable machines, generally the processor (which is the part that makes it PPC or Intel) is part of the logic board and these boards are very expensive. Even if they were available, the cost would be too high to justify and the rest of the hardware would be too old to keep up with the new board - so you'd be looking at a lot more money to get this machine up to spec (if it were an option).
Time to consider buying a new machine

No. The two processors are so different that the motherboards aren't even the least bit similar.

Laptop AMD Processor upgrade

Product information: HP Pavilion DV2615nr running Win Vista 32-bit, 1GB RAM, AMD Turion 64 X2 Mobile TL-58 (1.9GHz, socket S1, power wattage 31W). Speccy indicates laptop has a Wistron 30D6 motherboard (socket A).
I want to upgrade this slow system with a faster processor, more RAM and Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (or even downgrade to Win XP Pro 64-bit, at least for the short term)
I'm currently looking into adding RAM to a total of 4 GB.
I would appreciate some information in regards to the right processor I can upgrade to. At this time I'm thinking to upgrade to a AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-68, which runs at 2.4GHz, although the wattage is different, 35 watts, whereas the current TL-58 specification is 31 watts, and both processors are 65nm SOI process technology.
Can someone indicate if I'm in the right track in choosing a compatible processor (the TL-68)? Also, is there a better processor that I can successfully upgrade to, other that the TL-68? I've heard that not all socket S1 processors will run on the same socket even if they physically fit in the socket, hence I'm a bit confused as to which processor to go to.
Thanks.

Error export HD video on AMD processors

I have a problem. There are several computers with different processors. I create a complex project, more than 3 video tracks with effects. if you export video with 720-576 no problem. but if the resolution is increased to above 720p and then rendering is not possible. if you include rendering with CUDA then everything is OK. without CUDA, on a single processor error. but this error only on AMD processors. Intel i7 processors, the error is not present. tested on different computers, different operating systems, on different processors AMD, still if the error if the project is very complex. I do not think that the CPU AMD FX- 8320 can not cope with such a task.
I do not know English, I write through the translator, I think you'll understand.

My FX- 8320 processor instruction set is x86, x86-64, MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, SSE4A, XOP, AES, AVX, FMA, FMA4 . even more than the intel, so that's not the point, or simply not supported in the premiere of instructions from AMD, even though they are the same. How can you refer to the developers that they added optimization for AMD?

Recommendations for new mobo using AMD processor

I am still successfully using my current computer built in 2008 with a K9A2 Platinum mobo. It has been a remarkably reliable mobo with literally no major problems over the years and the mobo has been easily expandable to whatever desktop hardware I have used with it. So I have been very impressed with MSI hardware technology.
But its time for a new modern mobo and computer system for me which will be a bit faster than what I am currently using. Considering how reliable the K9A2 platinum has been I am looking at buying a modern MSI mobo using one of the latest and best AMD processors. I am not a gamer, or even an overclocker, but I do want a flexible and reliable system to use. I am a programmer so that things like compilation/link/build speed and program number-crunching execution speed are important for me and of course absolutely good reliability.
I have been away from the latest computer hardware arena for a number of years, except to buy an occasional add-on for my current system, so I have to educate myself on the latest and greatest being offered, as well as new terminology. I have the money to spend for the best technologies in desktop use, and I enjoy putting together a top-flight system for what my own use case as a programmer. My computer will end up be multi-boot ( I use BIBM ) running mainly Windows 7 and/or Windows 8, as well as a smattering of Linux distros ( Suse, Fedora, Ubuntu mainly ).
I already have a top-end Lian-Li full-tower chassis, a PC-79, that can house most any type mobo, and has room to spare for almost anything I want to do with my new system.
Recommendations or suggestions about the latest MSI mobos using AMD CPUs would be welcome. With all the new technology out there it is hard to know what works well, is reliable, and is extensible for any new hardware, especially faster CPUs, in the future.

FM2+ CPU development is at the forefront. They are APUs and are meant as a unique processing unit that can perform better in terms of integrated Graphics than anything that Intel has to offer. Their current CPU performance is not competitive. So if you want raw CPU power, then the FX8 series is the better option.
Here are the benchmark tests as performed by chip.de who apply a consistent test for most current CPU/APU. http://www.chip.de/bestenlisten/Bestenliste-Desktop-Prozessoren--index/detail/id/693/
Benchmarks: PCMark 7 (1.0.4), Excel 2010 SP1-Monte-Carlo-Simulation, Cinebench RR11.5, 64Bit, WinRAR 4.01, 64Bit, TrueCrypt 7.1 AES-Twofish-Serpent, HandBrake 0.9.5,

No socket or chipset will be out there forever. Just look at the frequent changes Intel makes and how AMD has been doing the same. So one has to make a decision on the best compromise available at the time and commit.
I can see the AM3+/AM3 CPUs are faster than the FM2+/FM2 APUs. Seems strange then that AMD would stop improving the AM3 line and go entirely with the FM2 line for the future. I understand graphics are big for gamers but still there are serious programmers/workers who want speed and also want to save a little money by buying AMD instead of Intel. I admit it looks like the higher end Intel CPUs are the speed champions, and I can certainly afford them if I want, but I have always gone for the friendlier AMD processors and mobos. Maybe I am just foolish since, unlike many who buy AMD for its overclocking ability, I am just looking for speed and reliability.
Thanks for all the information !

Is it possible to run OS X Mountain Lion in a Virtual Machine on an AMD Processor?

Hi guys, title says it all. Is it possible to run OS X Mountain Lion in a Virtual Machine on an AMD Processor? It is said that it only works on an Intel and I have an Intel computer but my AMD is the one I use for experimenting things such as this.
Thanks

Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.
