How to determine processor upgrade?

I have a wind top ae2220. How do I go about finding out what is the biggest processor I could install on the mother board?
Thank you for your time.

How to determine what prevents auto sleep?

My iMac doesn`t go to sleep automatically, so my question is how to determine what prevents sleep?

I, too, have just noticed this issue after I left my computer to secure empty trash. I thought my computer would enter sleep mode automatically, but when I returned to my home office to turn in for the night, I found that the computer had been on (with the monitor off) the entire evening. So much for "Energy Saver."
I have been through as many of the threads covering this issue. I checked to see if there were any apps using the processor. None. I checked "Put the hard drive(s) to sleep when possible." I made sure Internet Sharing was unchecked. I even unchecked Bluetooth sharing or anything that would require some type of network or internet connection. Despite all this, the computer still does not go to sleep on it's own.
I have just upgraded to Lion 10.7.3 on my iMac 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo so this is definitely a continuing problem which has not been addressed since older theads dealing with early versions of Lion.
Let's hope Mountain Lion will fix this.

Processor upgrade on Satellite L300-1BV

I've already upgraded the laptop from a T1600 (Celeron), to a T3200 (Pentium Dual Core). But does anyone know how far I can upgrade in the 478 P range of processors?
If so, could you supply the processor numbers?
+Message was edited: Model number changed in subject+

Its a Satellite L300-1BV and NOT Satellite L300D-1BV
This is big difference!
However, the Intel GL40 Express chipset supports these CPUs:
Intel Celeron Processor 575 (1M Cache, 2.00 GHz, 667 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor 585 (1M Cache, 2.16 GHz, 667 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor T1700 (1M Cache, 1.83 GHz, 667 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor T3100 (1M Cache, 1.90 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor T1600 (1M Cache, 1.66 GHz, 667 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor T3000 (1M Cache, 1.80 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor 900 (1M Cache, 2.20 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)

SCSI card for a G5 or processor upgrade for a G4?

Hi all
Actually, this is a question that concerns the G5 and the G4 forum, but I decided to post it here first.
So, I have this old G4/400 PCI with an Adaptec 2930 SCSI card that I use for scanning slides with an Artix 4000t sclide scanner; this works fine, but the G4 is rather slow when it comes to using some features of the scanning software, such as removing scratches.
I've been thinking about buying a SCSI card for my G5 (Dual 1.8) for some time now, but I'm not sure what card I should go for; I'm not even sure if there are still cards for such an "old" device as the slide scanner (about 3 to 4 years old, no Ultrawide or something like that). And then there's the problem of the drivers for the card - how long will they be available, especially now that Apple is switching to Intel...?
The other possibility would be to buy a processor upgrade for the G4. I've seen some at OWC, and they seem to be less expensive than a SCSI card. The drawback of this solution is of course that I'll have to keep the G4 standing on my desk... on the other hand, I do know that the scanner will work perfectly with the G4.
The G5, on the other hand... it will be faster and easier, since I won't have to transfer the files for storage and editing, I could free some space on my desk,... but will it work? The G5 is running 10.4, I'm not sure if my current scanner driver is compatible... and what when 10.5 comes out...?
So I'm looking for a second, third, fourth... opinion:
What would you do? Get a SCSI card for the G5 or a processor upgrade for the G4? What SCSI card would you recommend?
TIA,
Tina

I've done some research on G5 and SCSI and scanners, and obviously, what I remembered was correct... making it work seems at least tricky, and maybe expensive too (if you've got to buy new scanning software and and..).
So I guess that's decided: No SCSI on the G5. Leaves the question, should I buy a processor upgrade card for the G4? Getting some dual G4 on eBay might be an option, but then, that would be another computer in my already crammed office, and I just can't throw the G4 away, it's one of the very first models...
I came by the idea of a processor upgrade because I just played around with an old Mac SE, which has an 68030 accelerator card installed, and this seems to work fine. Anyone has any experience with G3 /G4 upgrades (good or bad)?
Smokerz: Why would you not recommend an upgrade? Any bad experiences?

Why is it that the new macbook pro processor upgrade option only offers up to 2.8 Ghz with Intel Dual Core i7, when back in Sep 12 I bought a 2.9 Ghz Intel Dual Core i7 Macbook, is the new one tuned to go much faster anyway?

Why is it that the new Macbook Pro processor upgrade option only offers up to 2.8 Ghz boosting to 3.3 Ghz with Intel Dual Core i7, when back in Sep 12 I bought a 2.9 Ghz boosting to 3.6 Ghz Intel Dual Core i7 Macbook, is the new one tuned somehow to go much faster anyway, or will the new one be slower in fact? Or does the solid state drive compensate for the lack of increased processor capacity?

The CPU's come from different Intel 'families'. The older ones are 'Ivy Bridge' and the newer ones are 'Haswell'. Numbers alone will not determine the efficiency of CPU.
Ciao.

How to determine which chipset my Satellite L300/700 has?

I have a SATELLITE L300/700 (PSLB8A-047004). The User Guide covers several models. It indicates that the chipset determines which memory modules I need for a memory upgrade. How do I find out which chipset I have, please?
Kev.

> I'm still curious about how to determine which chipset I have - any thoughts?
Go to the device manger and click on IDE Ata/Atapi controllers:

There you will see your chipset installed on your laptop. In my case, as shown on the screenshot is Intel ICH9m

Memory vs. Processor upgrade? Processor upgrade requires OS 9?

I have a Power Mac G4 QS with a 733 MHz processor and 640 MB of RAM. I plan to use it mainly for video editing, and was thinking about upgrading the processor or RAM or perhaps both. My first question is, should I should upgrade just one (processor OR memory) or both?
My second question requires a bit of explaining. I've already installed all of the software I will be using before realizing that this computer didn't have a version of OS 9 installed (I'm running 10.3.8, I think; I'm actually not on that computer at the moment, so I can't check). I've read that in order to perform a processor upgrade, you have to run a firmware upgrade that only works in OS 9.2.2, so I was wondering, how add OS 9 on to the computer without messing up my OS and/or wiping out all of the software I've already installed?
(Yes, I'm a Mac newbie, at least as far as installation goes.)
Power Mac G4 Quicksilver 733 Mac OS X (10.3.8) 640 MB RAM, 40 GB HD

Hi,
CPU's:
This processor is available, it does NOT need a manufacturers Firmware installed. It is also a dual processor and will work very well for video processing. This is a bargain, very fast too.
http://www.yourmacstore.com/shop/shopexd.asp?id=548
This dual processor needs manufacturer's Firmware installed but does NOT need Mac OS 9.2 for the install. It starts the Mac from a Disk and installs the Firmware for it, simple - just follow directions.
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/MAXG48D1700/
•••Only Sonnet upgrades still require you to boot into Mac OS 9.2.2 for the Firmware install.
Memory:
The prices are down right now, you can get a stick of 512MB RAM for $59, see this:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/133SD512328/
The above are some places to look at CPU's and memory. The first CPU and two sticks of 512MB RAM for a total of less than $600 will make your QS quite fast.
That seems a good deal to me, if you like the computer you currently have.
The new computer is always an option.
Regards,
Dave

How to determine I have 32-bit or 64-bit 2008 R2 edition?

I have SQL Server 2008 R2 installed. How to determine whether it is a 64-bit installation or a 32-bit.
In case it is a 32-bit edition, can I upgrade it to a 64-bit edition? If one PC has 32-bit installed and the Server has 64-bit installed, is it possible to work with database files irrespective of whichever bit edition it is?

Hello,
Please run the following command on SQL Server Management Studio:
SELECT
@@version
on the results you will find the answer.
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (RTM) - 10.50.1765.0

About migrating from one platform to another, yes you can do that with a side-by-side upgrade because SQL Server setup does not allow cross-platform upgrade.
Hope this helps.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.

Equium P200-1ED and processor upgrade

Hi
I have installed an 64GB SSD and installed Windows 7 with user and program data folders on an SD card installed as USB drive through the Expresscard slot. I have also put in 4GB of RAM
It is still slow browsing the web even through wired Ethernet. So I am considering upgrading the processors as the bottle neck appears to be definitely on the processor which is an Intel Dual T2310 @1.46 GHz.
So the question is what is the next possible processor upgrade?
Thanks

On the question of processor upgrade:
I have already upgraded the BIOS and the Intel Chip set driver.
The problem is that this model is discontinued and I can't find much information on it.
I got this old Lap Top for free, I have got an 64GB SSD for 25, 64GB SD and express-card adaptor 30 and the 2X2GB RAM for 19.00. So if a new processor can make it fast enough then it will be worth another $20-$40 expense considering that I saw a used one advertised on Amazon for 245.00.
I know that it can support T3700 with L4 cache. Considering that a 2.GH can be bought for around $20.00. I though I might as well see if it can support something even faster how much that is.
How ever I get the the your point but I just don't know what is slowing this machine down.
When I change tab or reload a form it takes time before I can see the response to the keyboard input.
I have checked the page faults but I don't see anything there.
I wonder if I change to no paging, now that I have and SSD in there. So, any ideas would be welcome.
I doubt the network connection is a problem because I have fast broadband and I have tested it wired and wireless and as I said, I have a desktop running the same OS with 64BG SSD and 4GB RAM and it is a hell of a lot faster but that one has a quad Intel processor. The only other difference is that on the desktop the user folders are not moved to another drive but that is because I don't have and SD slot on the other one and surely SD is a lot faster than HHD.
So, what else could be holding it back? Feed backs would be appreciated.

HT1635 how should i will upgrade my macbook'13inch (late 2008)

HI, i want to upgrade my Macbook 13inch late2009.
so, how should i will upgrade the ram,nvida graphics and GHS
please guide meh.
Thank you

You can upgrade the RAM and the disk but not the NVIDIA graphics processor. I don’t know what a GHS is.
On my 2009 MacBook I upgraded the memory and disk and it did wonders for the boot time and responsiveness. I found my $200 investment was well worth the money.
I expect you have 2 GB of memory so an 8 GB memory upgrade (~$100) will make a big difference. You can also upgrade the disk to a small SSD or large hybrid SSHD for around $80 to $260. Larger SSDs cost more. Your choice. The hybrid Seagate SSHD comes with an 8 GB SSD cache that provides SSD-like performance. My storage needs were minimal so I opted for a 120 GB SSD but if I had needed 500 GB to 1 TB of capacity I would probably have chosen the SSHD.
Order the parts from OWC (macsales.com) or Crucial.com. They provide Mac-tested and warranted parts with excellent service.
First confirm which model MacBook you have. About this Mac > More Info… Note the season and year. Then click on System Report and note the Model Identifier. For example, if it is a Late 2009 model it would be a MacBook 6,1. A late 2008 model (non-aluminum) would be a 4,1.
If it is a Late 2009 MacBook 6,1 it can hold up to 8 GB of RAM. Apple originally supported 4 GB of RAM but OWC has tested and supports 8 GB.
If it is a Late 2008 MacBook 4,1 it can hold up to 6 GB of RAM. Apple originally supported 4 GB of RAM but OWC has tested and supports 6 GB.
In these instances OWC supports larger RAM than Crucial so I would buy it form OWC. 8 GB for the 6,1 would cost you $105. 6 GB for the 4,1 would cost $125.
The disk-bus speed for the Late 2009 MacBook is 3 Gbps, which is good for supporting SSDs and SSHDs. Here are some example SSDs. If your capacity needs are modest you may want to chose an SSD. If you want the combination of 1 TB high capacity and SSD-like speed, choose the SSHD.
http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.aspx?model=MacBook%20(13-inch%2C%20Late%2 02009)
Crucial M500 120 GB: $81
Crucial M500 240 GB: $138
Crucial M500 480 GB: $260
http://www.crucial.com/store/modelpart.aspx?model=MacBook%20(13-inch,%20Late%202 009)&imodule=ST1000LM014
Seagate 1 TB SSHD: $105
For a $5 toolkit with the necessary screwdrivers I recommend http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/TOOLKITMHD/
For an enclosure to transfer the data Google “USB 3.0 enclosure”
The Crucial and OWC sites have tutorials on installing the memory and disks.
If you don’t want to do the upgrade yourself take it to an Apple Authorized Service Provider https://locate.apple.com/country. An Apple store will not install non-Apple parts.

Are processor upgrades worth it

im using logic 6.3 on os9.1. it runs great, very stable and i have enuf FX and virtuals to work with. im getting deeper mixing and am nearing the max point for my 500 dual processor. im seeking feedback about would it really help my situation to upgrade my processor within my os 9.1 or possible 9.2 limits (self emposed limits.. i dont want to take THIS machine to OSX). i was told a faster processor wouldnt increase my same bus speed so it wouldnt make much difference. what do u guys think. upgrade or not? ....and if so do u have recommendations on which upgrades would be the best for me.

I have upgraded processors in 2 macs in the past and both times I have been happy with the improvement, but with your machine being what it is, I would really consider upgrading to a better secondhand mac unless the upgrade is dirt cheap. Check out what you can find in your area and you may be surprised how cheaply you can upgrade your machine to double or more your current limits. I upgraded the processor in my G3 350 for a G3 450 in 2002, and late last year I bought a secondhand DP 1.25 for about 3 times the cost of the original upgrade chip.
Cheers

Sonnet processors- Encore/MDX Duet processor upgrade card

Just wondering how Sonnet processors (specifically the Sonnet Encore/MDX Duet processor upgrade card for the G4 MDD macs) function with Logic Pro.
If anyone is using these particular cards in conjunciton with Logic Pro 7 on the lastest mac OS X, I'd really like to know how they perform? (these are specifically upgrade cards for the G4 MDD edition macs).
I'm looking to upgrade my 867 MgHz dual-pro. G4 MDD with one of these Sonnet cards.
Any feed back would be appreciated.
Thanks people.

thanks for your input,
I've checked out that site. It's where i originally read about the Sonnet line of upgrade cards .
Great site for tweaking and learning some good **** about your mac systems.
cheers.

Sonnet G4 1G processor upgrade

Hello, new to forum and I have a question.
I have been running this processor upgrade in my B&W for almost a year now and I know Sonnet had decrease the bus speed back to 66 to get it to work. Has anybody figured out how to get the bus speed back with this upgrade?

How to determine who is connected via AFP in WORKGROUP

I am running a WORKGROUP configuration leopard server on a MP early 2008. Using the server widget I can tell if there are users connected but I have not figured out how to determine Who is connected and how to contact them if I want to reboot the server. Moreover, how do I determine what users are doing? The AFP log is turned off in this config and I can't get it to come on. From the command line I could use serveradmin to find out who is connected but in the workgroup config it is not clear if it is OK to run serveradmin since the GUI counterpart "Server Aministrator" is forbidden unless you upgrade to the advanced config. Does anybody know if the CLI serveradmin is OK to use in the WORKGROUP config or know any other way to determine who connected via AFP and SMB and what files they have open? This semms like a terrible security risk without knowing who is doing what.
Thanks
-Chris

Just in case others have the same question, I have determined that the CLI tools can be used to query the file services without any apparent detrimental effects while using our leopard server 10.5.3 in a workgroup configuration. Hence the names of AFP users can be determined from the command line by:
sudo serveradmin command afp:command = getConnectedUsers | grep name
and the smb users can be found with:
sudo serveradmin command smb:command = getConnectedUsers | grep name
Hope that helps
