Ideacenter k330 Motherboard Upgrade options

Are there any lenovo supported Ideacenter k330 Motherboard Upgrade options?
If not, Is there any reason why I would not be able to simply replace the OEM motherboard with
Brand X's motherboard. I have heard that the Processor might be locked. I have never heard of such
a thing in the past and would

Well, you can replace the motherboard with one from R51 with Intel graphics, nice project that will give you a reliable machine...

  • CPU and motherboard upgrades for DV7-2278ca

    Hi
    I have a DV-2278ca laptop with Intel Core™2 Quad Q9100 2.26-GHz with 12-MB L2 cache and 1066-MHz FSB and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 discrete graphics subsystem and 1-GB of dedicated memory.
    I want to upgrade them to something that uses second/third generation INTEL (I5/I7)
    Is it possible? if yes what are my options?
    Thanks!

    I am going to be honest here. The chances of upgrading those components is very low and not very likely to work with that notebook case.
    A second generation Core i5/i7 process is two generations away from the current processor which will require a motherboard upgrade. I'm certain you are aware of this since you mention upgrading the CPU and the motherboard. This is an issue since the case for the notebook was specifically matched to the motherboard it came with. It is possible that finding one that supports what you want and fits that case will be challenging. It can also add up in cost and risk. Risk being the components just don't work or a different feature of the notebook doesn't work any more.
    I did do some research to find other posts, in this forum and outside this forum, where others have successfully changed those components. I found plenty on replacing it with the same motherboard, but none that were specifically upgrading it. Perhaps I did not use the right search terms. Notebooks are generally intended to be as they are configured with limited upgrades available for the hard drive and RAM.

  • P6804 Motherboard Upgrade

    I have an HP p6804 desktop computer that I was wanting to run Flight Simulator X on. I need to upgrade the motherboard in order to upgrade the video card. Does anyone know a list of compatible motherboards that will work, if any?

    The End of Life Cycle has finally struck your a1520n (circa 2006) WIN XP machine.  As WIN XP is  no longer supported by Microsoft updates,  it would be foolish to persue any build based on WIN XP, IMHO. The processor is based on the 939 chip, and the max upgrade is only 15% in speed, but that chip is no longer stocked. (based on search by other members).  If you only have 1GB of otherboard RAM, then a meager upgrade to four 1GB modules will give you some limited increase in potential. Cost $46 plus shipping.
    Now that you have been told this scenerio, let's be adaptive:  You can still go to WIN7 (valid until 2020)
    (1)http://www.howtogeek.com/172243/windows-xp-users-here-are-your-upgrade-options/
    (2) The a1520n driver page supports WIN 7 32 bit (that is all you need with the added RAM modules.
    (3) MS did support a WIN7 advisor page. Maybe it's still valid.
    (4) You still need a XP Easy Transfer program (free) and purchase of WIN7 , either upgrade or OEM. $75-100.

  • If apple bring out a new ipad after i purchase, is there an upgrade option available?

    if i was to buy an ipad 2 today and in a months time the ipad 3 came out, would apple provide an upgrade option to upgrade to the new one??

    They have never done so in the past, and I doubt that they would in the future. All that you've been able to do with Apple is return it for a full refund if it was within the returns timescale, and then buy a new one instead

  • Missing the visual upgrade option on SP 2010 site

    I have a series of content databases that were upgraded from MOSS 2007. Most have not yet undergone the visual upgrade.
    Today, I have been working on copying two of those sites to a new location.
    I created two new team sites. These of course already had the visual upgrade.
    I did an export-spweb of the two old sites. I then did an import-spweb of the two old sites into the new sites that I created.
    The result is the two old style GUI in the new location.
    When I took a look at the site settings (as a farm admin) I do not see an option to perform the visual upgrade on the sites.
    I know that there are powershell commands that I can execute when the time is right.
    I don't understand, however, where the visual upgrade option went.
    Hmm - I just went back to the original sites that were copied and they too do not have the visual upgrade option in the site settings.
    The top level site does, however, have that option.
    Odd...

    But export-spsite won't help.
    1. These sites were being copied from one part of a site collection tree to another branch in the same site collection.
    2. As I mentioned at the end of my posting, it turns out that the original sites had also lost their visual upgrade menu item - how, I do not know.
    Because of these two factors - and maybe others - I was hoping there was a "simple fix" for this. But if there is not, then I just have to live wtih that.

  • Hey, I have an unopened iPad mini that I won at work and I'm wondering if there's an upgrade option where I can exchange this for an iPad mini with retina display? Thanks

    Take it to an Apple store and ask. All they can do is say no. They may ask for a purchase receipt to make sure it's not stolen.

  • 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.

  • Any "discounted upgrade" option for new Acrobat 9 buyers when X is released?

    I'm looking at buying Acrobat and as of right now, I notice that Adobe's website is only promoting the pre-ordering of version X (I can't even find an option to buy version 9 on here but can find it on Amazon and stuff).
    I need to purchase a version of the software ASAP, but I'm just wondering:  If I were to buy 9 now (right before release of X) is Adobe going to have an upgrade option that will allow me to upgrade to X without having to pay full price for the software?  I'm looking at getting the highest level option (the $800 one).
    Hopefully I posted this in the right section of the forum...
    Thanks.

    Thank you, George.
    So, in other words, that means if I buy now through Amazon, I won't get the upgrade option (since it's a 3rd part site), despite the new release announcement, correct?
    Is there a link anywhere on Adobe to buy version 9 now so I do qualify for the X upgrade?  I can't seem to find one...

  • Solaris 10 upgrade from 9 - Upgrade option not presented

    I have moved the system disk from a v880 to a v480 and successfully booted.
    I've successfully tested the upgrade using pfinstall.
    /usr/sbin/install.d/pfinstall -D /tmp/profile
    I had the following text in /tmp/profile
    install_type upgrade
    root_device /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0
    This finished with:
    Test run complete. Exit status 0.
    I had to mount /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0 to /a before running pfinstall otherwise the program would fail with Exit status 2.
    Original slice layout is:
    # df -h | grep c1t0
    /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0 9.8G 4.2G 5.6G 43% /
    /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s3 9.8G 3.7G 6.1G 38% /usr

    /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s6 20G 2.0G 18G 11% /export/home
    Because of http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-4041/6nfhjnlao?l=Ja&a=view
    I moved var from slice 3 to / on slice 0
    I also removed "swap" entries in vfstab, and even removed the second disk in the system (which didn't have an OS)
    ok> boot cdrom - nowin
    this results with no upgrade option presented
    Can someone tell me what I can do? I don't have experience with Jumpstart or Live upgrade
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Yes and no.
    11gR1 and 11gR2 are fully supported (premier support). 10gR1 and 10gR2 are in extended support. About 9.2 it's a bit more complicated and the general extended support ended : check note 161818.1 for further details.
    After the extended support there is still the sustaining support.
    Read that to understand the notions :

  • How to update SP2010 sites that are missing the Visual Upgrade options

    So, we are moving towards upgrading some SP 2010 sites that are currently using the old SP 2007 look and feel so that they have the new ribbon Visual Upgrade.
    For some reason, some of these sites do not have the Site Actions > Visual Upgrade option nor do they have the Site Actions > Site Settings > Visual Upgrade link.
    Does anyone know what can be done to make those available?
    Thank you.

    Even when I take a look at
    http://myfarm/sites/Support/dept1/_layouts/prjsetng.aspx?Source=http%3A%2F%2Fmyfarm%2Fsites%2FSupport%2Fdept1%2FPages%2Fdefault%2Easpx
    which is where the site actions > visual upgrade link should take the user, that page does not have the visual upgrade options on it.
