Is it possible to make an upgrade on the CPU ?

As the new iMac is using the same type of CPU of intel PC, can I brought a higher clock speed CPU and replace it after my warranty is passed ?

Since the CPU in the iMac Core Duo isn't soldered onto the logic board you might be able to do it in the future. No idea about what type or how much faster a CPU you might be able to install since the iMac has a cooling system designed for the 1.83 or 2.0 Core Duo. Will be very interesting to see what is possible.

  • Is it possible to make a copy of the Leopard install DVD?

    Is it possible to make a copy of the Leopard install DVD? If so, is there a special way this has to be done? I just found out that we needed to use the Leopard install DVD to recover a complete backup from Time Machine after a recent hard drive failure. We have the family pack of Leopard, so I would like to keep the original at home and send a copy when my daughter goes off to college in case she needs to recover again. Her machine was originally a Tiger MacBook, so those install disks will not work. If it is not possible to copy the DVD, is there a way to create a bootable utility to do a time machine recovery?

    This half-solved my problem. I have had no problems creating a backup copy for my intel based computers, but non-intel based computers are problematic; a G5 powermac tower and a G4 Powerbook. Both with super drives for single density burning. Both have Leopard running, installed from an install disc purchased from Apple. However, neither will mount the copy, but intel based computers will. have burnt/burned with both toast 9 and Disc Utility. Discs won't mount and are "spit out" by the drive.
    Power Mac G5 OS X: 10.5.4
    Model Identifier: PowerMac7,3
    Processor Name: PowerPC G5 (3.0)
    Processor Speed: 2 GHz
    Number Of CPUs: 2
    L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB

    Any thoughts?

  • Is it possible to make a slipstream using the recovery CD (SM30-154 WXP)?

    Is it possible to make an slipstream using the product recovery (satelite pro SM30-154 and windows XP home) and die windows XP sp 3 update?
    If so, how?
    grtz

    Hi
    What you could do is to create a new image using a 3rd party application like Norton Ghost for example.
    You could firstly install the Windows XP using the Toshiba recovery CD.
    Then you could install the MS service pack 3 and then you could create the new image.
    Such image could be stored on the new CD or as file on the second partition.
    I did it too. Ive got two partitions on my HDD and have created a backup of C (system partition) using the Ghost. The file is stored on D (data partition) and if something will go wrong with my Windows I can restore it using this file.
    Easy ;)

  • Portege R600 - Is it possible to make a call with the SIM?

    Hi,
    I wonder if its possible to use the Wireless connection manager 5 and to make or receive a call?

    Hi,
    I see that nobody answered so i will try to explain what i meant -
    Is it possible to make audio call with the Wireless Manager by the GSM modem module?
    I succeed to send SMS and to connect to HSPA data services but i dont find any reason why i can not connect to the GSM and make a call.
    I have Portege R600 model PPR61E-01C00NG3
    I even succeed to use the GPS that probably installed in the GSM/HSPA modem (wireless manager 5).
    If anyone can explain how and if it possible to make a call please send your reply ... i wnat to use the laptop with BT instead of cell phone ....
    Thanks

  • Why can't I make Lightroom use all the CPU-Power (all cores) available for generating Previews?

    Dear Lightroom Team,
    I've been a Lightroom user since the very first Beta, and I am truly happy with the work you deliver. It changed my way of editing forever, and you guys keep improving it.
    Yet there is that one question that bothers me, and that i'm looking for an answer for.
    My Workflow has the generate Previews checkbox checked by standard. I usually import between 150 and 2000 photos at once, on occaions it can be up to 5000 photos. Generating Previews always takes a significant amount of time, and Lightroom is only using 25% of my CPU Power while doing so. (using a MacBook Pro 8,2)
    I understand the concept, that only using 25% CPU enables me to use the computer while waiting for the Previews. But most of the time I just grab myself a cup of coffee, do the dishes or other stuff, while waiting for the Previews. Usually I rund out of things to do, because it takes ages to Process all the photos. So I would really love to make Lightroom use ALL the cpu power possible.
    I'm sure you guys have spent a lot of thoughts while coding this and have a very good answer handy. Looking forward reading it!
    all the best,
    Wolfgang

    On my four-year old Windows 7 i7-860 system LR4.4.1 takes ~0.5 sec. per Canon 5D MKII 21Mp raw image to render 'Standard-Sized' previews with LR Catalog Settings 'Standard Preview Size' set to '2048' pixels. I consider that pretty fast!
    I usually build 1:1 full-size previews on import, which takes ~5.0 sec. per image. Processor utilization varies between 15-50% for Standard-Sized previews and 15-65% for 1:1 previews. I consider this pretty slow, but it doesn't stop me from working on the images inside LR's Library and Develop modules.
    I wait until 'Copy and import photos' has completed and can see Preview Building has started. LR doesn't slow-down much even with the 1:1 preview building going on in the background. Have you tried working in LR during the preview building (i.e. sorting,  rating, keywording, and Develop adjustments)?

  • Is it possible to make a change in the library that is called in a subvi? (in this case the GetCoefficients in the Levemberg-Marguardt curve fit)

    Hi,
    I need to make a change in the way the new coefficients are calculated. It's the "get new coefficients.vi" in the nonlinear levenberg marquardt algorithm.
    A library is called, but the change must be made in that library. Is there any way to do this? I do understand C++ or similar language where the library might be programmed in, that's not the problem.
    with kind regards
    Hasse wiersma

    No, we do not have access to the source code for that shared library, it ships as part of LabVIEW and only NI has the source code. You will need to re-write (either in LabVIEW or C++/DLL) all the code completely.

  • It's possible to make simultaneous changes in the following architecture?

    For safety issues we can't deploy apps through nwds, so the only way to impact on the environment is release and import activity in the environment.
    We set the nwdi with environments dev, qa and prd.
    What I see is:
    - I make a change to a dc A and released it to test in qa.
    - Then i make a change to a dc B, released it to test in qa, the user test, gime the ok and i transport it to prd.
    - When i make the assembly proccess it put all the changes, which i did in the dc to and which I did in the dc b (I guess it's because both tasks released).
    - So this is a configuration problem of di, or a limitation that does not allow assets to pass separately changes
    Regards.

    Limitation of NWDI in combination with the Software Component model...
    So in other words you couldn't do anything about it
    But... since EHP1...
    This limitation can be overcome by using "Activity based transporting":

  • Is it possible to make an screensaver to the apple tv , were it uses my movie libary? Now i can only choose my music libary..

    There are several options for screensavers but they all revolve around your photos. You could capture your movie art as photos and select the album in the screensaver settings, but it will involve you doing this yourself.

  • My iPhone contacts disappeared. Is it possible to make backup?

    Today I cannot acces to the setiings in my iphone, so i switched it off and when i switched on, all my iphone contacts were gone. Is it possible to make some backup of the contacts?
    Thank you in advance for your help

    Thsi seems to be happening a lot. Mine just disappeared out of no where last night. I wasn't on the phone or anything. My sister texted me and I picked up my phone to see who it was and it just showed her number. I checked my contacts turned the phone off and back on and my contacts still weren't back.
    Anyone get an answer from APPLE on this issue. I have never had problems with my Iphones before but have had many problems with the 4s from the battery running down now to this. I refused to upgrade when my 4s is just a little over a year old.

  • Is it possible to upgrade the CPU or GPU of a Toshiba Notebook?

    Many customers would like to upgrade/replace the CPU (Central Processing Unit) and/or GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) in their mobile systems to gain performance.
    Toshiba does not support or recommend performing modifications on their mobile systems since the core components in these mobile systems are not upgradeable like in a desktop system.

    Hi there,
    I think what John meant to say is: it is not possible because it´s too expensive and you won´t gain some really big speed. I don´t know where you read something, but I think if you were a toshiba technician and would be familiar with electronics and the machines or especially with your machine than you won´t have a problem to exchange it.
    I already tried to perform such exchange on my Satellite P20 some months ago. I can truly tell you: it didn´t bring me really some speed or performance. You will gain more performance by upgrading your RAM or your harddisk, but not with exchanging your CPU.
    And it doesn´t matter which machine do you have regardless if you own a Satellite, Satellite Pro or a Tecra. The result is the same because the models have all the same componentes (but not similar hardware :) )

  • If Possible to make a Image from

    Hello
    I have a doubt, Well I have a System where Exist a Server a three station of Work, Two PC (Station Work) are Ultra 5 (Very Old)
    The Idea is to change these computer by Ultra 80 Station (Because we have this type of machine in my Store)
    Is possible to make a Image of the disk of the Ultra 5 and copy this information to Ultra 80?
    If this is possible, I would Like to help me,
    Regard
    Andres

    Since the NI-DAQ driver software is multithreaded, a multiprocessor system would have enhanced performance over a single processor system. Either way, you can have multiple handshaking digital I/O cards in a system for high speed acquisition, granted you have enough operating system resources (DMA, IRQ) for the cards.
    You can find more information about this by going to the http://www.ni.com/support page and searching All Technical Resources for the keyword "multiprocessor". You will find an excellent NI Developer Zone presentation, as well as tutorials and other technical documents.

  • How can I make a copy of the FAQs module or filter on language?

    Hi,
    is it possible to make a copy of the FAQs module? I need to have FAQs in different languages.
    I can add event, photo, news ands media modules but not a new FAQs module.
    I also found that you can add a category and display the FAQs with the filter: cr or individual filter. But where do I add the category name to filter on?

    Solved!
    Quick solution: the ID is used for the category name, so I need to do a time consuming process to find the id.
    Result:
    {module_faq,c,19227,,ajax,}
    Great!
