I have a hp dv7-1020us. Can I upgrade the CPU and if I can what is the best I can obtain?

Just recently my hp dv7-1020us CPU performance has drastically been reduced to the extent that it runs at 75 to 100% capacity all the time. It is very noticable when accessing the internet. At times my screens take up to 60-seconds to change/refresh. I see "not responding" on most web pages accessed.
I had heard that possibly a CPU upgrade would correct the issue. What I have done most recently is upgrade the memory to 8gb, installed W7 Home and also downloaded IE9. The performance issue was noticed before I made all those changes. I have two hard drives installed, both are less than 50%. I have contacted the cable company about my cable router and they have remotely tested without any issues. I have also been runing daily virus scans to see if a virus has possibly infiltrated my system. I even re-installed my previous wireless router and there was no remarkable change.
If anyone has any ideas or solutions please let me know. I am actually looking at another computer, the dm4-3090se as a fix but don't really want to spend the money. I also have a small Asus netbook with 2gb's of memory that runs faster than my hp. My phone even accesses web sites faster. Again, if anyone has any ideas please share!

Hi:
If you are interested in upgrading the processor (which may help only a little--depending on what processor you currently have), below is the link to the service manual.

Normally when my PC's begin to get real bogged down and I have maxed out the memory as you have, I back up my files and reinstall the operating system, and get a fresh clean start.

Satellite A350 - Can I upgrade the CPU to 2.4 or 2.6Ghz

Hey, i just purchased a A350 and i have a Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0ghz Processor but i want to upgrade to about 2.4-2.6ghz. These are my questions.
1. Is it possible to do?
2. Is it worth doing?
3. I have a Intel Centrino sticker on the keyboard. This has confused me to do i have a Core 2 Duo or Centrino.
I have general knowledge about computers but im not a an expert. Any help would be muchly appreciated.
Thank You.

> 1. Is it possible to do?
Nothing is impossible but the question is if its advisable. In my opinion its not advisable. First of all the CPU upgrade will cancel your warranty. Secondly nobody would be able to say if the notebook would run stable after such upgrade and if the BIOS would support if correctly. There is a high risk of overheating because the stringer CPU creates more heat dissipation which would lead to a higher temperature
Last but not least you will not notice a big performance boost.
>2. Is it worth doing?
In my opinion its not worth. Check the point 1.
> 3. I have a Intel Centrino sticker on the keyboard. This has confused me to do i have a Core 2 Duo or Centrino.
Ive got a Satellite notebook equipped with CORE2 DUO T8100 (2.1GHZ) CPU and Ive got the same Intel Centrino sticker.
The Centrino sticker means that the CPU supports this technology but it does not mean that this is Centrino CPU.
For more details regarding Intel Centrino technology please check this Intel page:

Upgrading the CPU in my HP Pavilion dv6-6b08sa Notebook PC

Hey there,
I am looking to upgrade my seemingly weak CPU so that my laptops performance may be noticeably improved, for things such as gaming. I have an HP Pavilion dv6-6b08sa Notebook PC, running a Windows 7 64-bit Operating System.
This is my current CPU:
Quad-Core AMD A6-3410MX APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics, 1600 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s)
If you require any more information about my laptop in order to help me, please ask and I will be happy to provide.
Please note that I do not want to have to upgrade any other components of my laptop, such as the motherboard, in case the CPU requires stronger/more powerful support, as money is a limitation. The cheaper the better, as long as the performance will be improved noticeably. Thank you.

Hello TooQuix,
I understand you want to upgrade your CPU is the correct? I will try and provide you the information that you need.
This document will provide you a list of processors available for this unit. Now because you have AMD installed originally, and you're using the same motherboard you will have to continue to use AMD.
If you turn to page 85 there is a list of processors, the part numbers are there as well to help your search. Also, if you plan on doing the work on your own the instructions on how to replace the processor is shown there as well.
I hope this helps.

Upgrade the two Hdds of HP Pavilion dv7-3190ev

I want to upgrade the two HDDs of 500GB in my HP Pavilion dv7-3190ev. What the maximum size of GBs that i can replace them , without any problem with power supply or any other problem in operation?...

Hi,
At this stage, 1TB is a good number for laptop HDD's. You may also need to update the BIOS. My dv7 actually has 2 HDD's (2 x 1TB).
Regards.

Hi:
Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02642701.pdf
Supported wireless cards are listed in chapter 3 starting on page 24.
From the looks of it, you have a choice of the Atheros AR9280 802.11a/b/g/n 2x2 WiFi Adapter, or the
Broadcom 4322 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN adapter.
You must only get one of the cards listed in the service manual and they MUST have the HP part # on them, or they WILL NOT work in your notebook.
Make sure you choose a card with the part # listed for your locale.

Why we can't upgrade the cpu of cheaper air???

cpu upgrade is only available for the expensive model. Why ?

It's probably a business decision based on the economics of quantity. Having a better processor is generally better matched with other components that are already upgraded, and that's what the greatest number of CPU upgraders want.
The number of people buying a 2 GB i7 with a small SSD has to be pretty darn small.

Power PC G5 - can I upgrade the processor?

Hello,
I have had my G5 since 2004, I love it. I have only ever had to upgrade the memory in the years I have had it. However, now that the processor is no longer used I can not upgrade the OS any further and many new programs both Apple and other will not work with my computer. So... I face a dilemma, I see no reason to get rid of a perfectly working computer. I would like to see if it is possible to just upgrade some parts. If so do I need to go to the Apple store, or can I find a savvy computer guy to just fix my compie up?
Thank you!

Hi kpdub, and a warm welcome to the forums!
You can't upgrade the CPU, but you can upgrade the OS to 10.5.8.
Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
* Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
minimum system requirements
* 512MB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
You have to call Apple &likely ask for a Product Specialist to get it, if they still have it!

How to upgrade the CPU of Cisco ASA 5520?

After installing the new anti virus on all PCs in our company, the CPU usage of our Cisco firewalls increased up to 92%. How can we upgrade the CPU of the device to lower the CPU usage? Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I'm not really into security, I'm more on router & switches. Here is the result of the show command I enter on the ASA. May I ask again for your help.

Satellite M100 - I can't analyse the CPU temperature

I'm an owner of Toshiba Satellite M100 series (Core Duo T2300, X1400, etc.). The problem is that I can't analyse the CPU temperature changes in such popular application like Everest or Notebook Hardware Control. Also any other software provided by Toshiba and already installed on my HDD doesn't include some CPU diagnostics including the temperature changes!
The only software which seems to be working is the HWiNFO32 so there is some thermal sensor inside which reads this temperature of Centrino Duo processor, but this software is not very user-friendly :(
There is a request for Toshiba to do something with this... I've upgraded BIOS in my model to a version 1.70 but it didn't change anything I could easily notice (or is there any?) :(

Hi
Like Mike said the BIOS update has nothing to do with the CPU temperature monitoring.
The fact is that Toshiba doesnt support any 3rd party applications.
However, all the temperature programs are not precise and dont get exactly information about the temperature. Only the programs with a physical temperature sensor will give you a exactly temperature.
I dont understand why its so important for you to know the temperature. The Toshiba notebooks support an overheating protection and if the temperature increases to the critical level so the unit shuts down automatically.

Can you upgrade the Apple MacBook MB466LL/A to 8gb ram

can you upgrade the Apple MacBook MB466LL/A to 8gb ram

Apple only tests the MacBook with the RAM that's affordable at the time of manufacture. At that time 4gb RAM sticks ran about $400 each. Once they've tested them they never go back as the RAM drops in price since they're on to the next model by then.
So (Apple) means what they first tested the MacBook at. (Actual) means how much RAM the MacBook is capable of handling.

I have just brought a new ipod and it won't work with my old imac as it is running pre 10.5 software. I can't upgrade the software, so what should I do?

I have just brought a new ipod and it won't work with my old imac as it is running pre 10.5 software. I can't upgrade the software, so what should I do?

There is nothing to do, unless you buy a new computer.
Mac OS 10.5.8 or later is required.

Can I upgrade the OSX V 10.7 Lion to another operational system without risc to lose the instaled programs?

How can I upgrade the Mac OS X 10.7.5 to better operational system?

Back up your data, check your applications for compatibility, and try downloading Yosemite from the Mac App Store. If you get told that it's incompatible, your computer can't be upgraded past 10.7.5.
Upgrading the OS always carries the risk of losing data that hasn't been backed up. It isn't possible to foresee all problems associated with this.
