M6-1068ca Service Manual and CPU upgrade

I have an HP Pavilion M6-1068ca and am trying to upgrade some components of it. 
I can't find a working link to the hardware/service manual of the laptop.  Each link I find through google takes me to a dead page. 
Also trying to determine if I can upgrade my CPU to an A10-4750m. 
This question was solved.

  • OS X Tiger and CPU Upgrades

    I have a 400 MHz G4. I primarily use it for FCP 2 and music but have been having problems seeing my Que Fire firewire cdrw. I have thought about a CPU upgrade and want to add a DVD+-RW to copy projects out to DVD's instead of tapes. With the trouble of having to hack a driver in 9.2 to get a DVD unit to work - would it be easier to upgrade to OS X Tiger to get around the DVD issues and get new features but am I only going to have more issues because of the upgraded CPU. The Apple specs say OS X is not compatible with upgrades but the manufacturers of the cpu upgrades say they are. Several of the new OS X DVD units I've looked at require at least 500MHz. (I posted earlier on the OS 9 forum - my old cdrw works on a new FW equipped laptop with Tiger.) I'm trying to get some more life out of my old G4 because I can't afford to buy a new G5. Any suggestions???? Thanks

    You will triple the stated clock speed, but in no way
    will the machine run 3 times as fast. You'll be lucky
    to notice much change at all.
    Yes you're right, in real world terms the machine won't be 3 times as fast, as you're still stuck with the same 100MHz system bus and memory etc, but I think that saying you'll be lucky to notice much change at all is a little unfair.
    I recently upgraded the processor in one of my Macs and the difference was very noticeable, from reduced boot/rendering/encoding times to greater all round responsiveness.
    If you're moving from OS 9 to OS X and you don't upgrade the processor, I expect OS X will feel pretty sluggish in comparison, although like you say more RAM will help.

  • Need 50AX60 service manual and/or file number

    I am trying to repair a old school Toshiba 50AX60 rear projection TV. I need the file number for the service manual so I can search for a free download online. Can anyone help me?

    Mike

    The manual was very helpful. I used the procedure I found there. When I got to step 5 where you check the PSU fans, I see that they try to spin up when the power button is pushed. They don't even get a full rotation before they stop. I guess this means that the PSU has some problems. Up until step 5 the voltages where correct, so I guess just checking one or two voltages does not tell the full story.
    I noticed that the pinouts posted here
    http://www.outofspec.com/frankenmac/wire.shtml
    did not match the manual. They are the mirror image (up/down) from the manual. The manual matched my pinouts. Also where it says 28v on the frankenmac diagram, it is 25v in the manual.
    New PSU units cost $340+, from what I see. The computer is not worth much more than that. I think I will put my money towards a new Core I7 Mac tower, when they come out. I should be able to move the hard drive over. Hopefully the new towers will handle the old hard drives. In the mean time my gaming PC will have to do double duty.

  • X305-Q705 - GPU and CPU upgrades possible?

    Question 1:
    I know that on some models have 2 GPUs.
    How can I upgrade the 9700M GTS and can I use crossfire or SLI?
    Question 2:
    What is the CPU I can buy for my laptop?
    Many thanks,
    Zyon

    Raver. What makes you think SLI is restricted to desktops only? There are plenty of notebooks out there with dual GPUs in SLI configuration including higher spec versions of this one. The x305-q706 has dual 9700m GTS's in SLI
    This notebook will support most dual and quad Penryn processors upto QX9300. but upgrading will be trouble because the motherboard has to be removed first because there is no easy access to the CPU from underneath the notebook.
    But ravers right with not needing to upgrade, It has plenty of power at the moment.

  • Why can't I install MacOSX Lion on a Mac Mini with 10.6.8, 2GB RAM, and CPU upgraded to Core2 Duo?

    I have an older Intel Mac Mini running fully updated Snow Leopard with an upgraded CPU (Core2 Duo), RAM (2GB), and hard drive.
    Supposedly, this should be compatible with Lion, but the App Store refuses to download it.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    It's not the graphics card it is the fact that it is an "upgraded"
    system.  Lion, as with any OSX install, is based on the
    original computer ID.  If the ID indicated that it was not
    a model that was shipped with a CPU that meets the minimum
    requirements it will not install. 
    The reason I say it is not the graphics card, is that my
    Macbook has that card and Lion installed without issue.  It
    was, however, equipped with a Core2Duo processor.

  • L530 BIOS and CPU upgrade problems

     I recently upgraded the cpu in my E520 from a 2520M to a 2760QM. Though the cpu was not officially supported, it worked perfectly without so much as a bios update. It even benchmarks above passmark's average.
    Smash cut to ebay a couple weeks later where I picked up a L530 and a 3720QM in an attempt to pull the same trick on an Ivy Bridge system. I installed the new cpu and it didn't post. Just some beep errors.
    After doing quite a lot of research and buying a spi programmer I have tried the following:
    Updating the BIOS (beep errors)
    Updating the microcodes (beep errors)
    Flashing a coreboot rom based on the T530 (would not even power on)
    And flashing a rom with all microcode related data replaced with W530 code (still booted old processor, but gave beep errors with the 3720QM)
    So this leaves me with a question. What could I be missing? The sockets and chipsets are compatible. It has got to be a BIOS problem. Is there a CPU whitelist I am not aware of?
    I have not really been able to find any further information and any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello!
    The BIOS name would be companies bought each other.

    Hello, i have a HP probook 4710s, and I also make motorbike videos and general videos with a GoPro Hero 3+, and its full HD at 1080p and 60fps. My laptop can't play this. I can watch full HD videos on youtube for example, but when i try to play it on windows media player the video shatters and lags and I simply can't watch it. I found what seems to be a solution, Some people said i have to upgrade the CPU to a dual core 2.0ghz.. The problem is I don't know much about computers, so can you talk with me like a total noob, please? ANd i also need to know where I can buy the CPU and the RAM online!!!

    If I try using Help>Update Adobe Application Manager opens, goes through an apparent download of all the updates but I see little data stream comming in and then staps saying  there is a download problem please try later.
    If I dowload the update direct for the Adobe site the download is fine but when I run AdobePatchInstaller.exe to istall say Camera Raw 6.7 Adobe Application Manager opens and thinks for a little whlie before giving  "an error installing the update"
    I have tried Adobe support adviser but this was of little help indicating "cpsid_90243r4: Error DW020 or DW050 occurs during installation - Creative Suite 5.5, Flash CS5.5, Flash Builder 4.5" which is apparently an error sometimes seen during initial installation.

  • MSI GX60 1AC THX utilities and cpu upgrade

    Hello, I've recently bought clean gx60 without OS. I've made clean install of windows 8 from my dreamspark student account under uefi. I've installed all the drivers from product site. The first problem encounterd was with realtek driver for audio, when i run the setup, it didn't run, then i clicked for troubleshooting, it said program is incompatible. So i installed it, by device manager update driver. Another same problem is with two utilities for THX, they won't run, and windows says they are incompatible. So in this matter any help would be appreciated, becouse i want to benefit from this tools.
    Another question is if I can but new amd processor a10-5750m and install it in this laptop eventually, or it can't work.
    Cheers

    Hello again. So I've managed to find out, that my bios was 105 version for non.win8 systems, so i've updated it to 109 from official site. So now is the question. Does this mean for me, that even so i've installed win8 i lack some of features in for example boot procedure? Should I reinstall the system to windows 7 or reinstall windows 8 under bios not uefi.? Or maybe there is a way to install bios for windows 8 which is uploaded on product site, despite that they're telling that it shouldn't be done?

  • Pavilion g6-1262sa CPU upgrade v2, Sandy Bridge = Ivy Bridge?

    Hi, thanks to the Pavilion g6-1262sa maintenance and servicing manual and this magnificient forum I've recently found out that replacing my i3-2330m is possible with all sandy bridge processors up to i7-2620m.
    Theese questions may sound silly but I continued my research and I've got couple more ideas to confront with reality.
    I do realise that compatibility is not only matter of fitting the same socket but also bios installed on certain motherboard, however:
    1. Do you think it would be possible to swap Sandy Bridge (2nd gen) i3-2330m for some Ivy Bridge (3rd gen) i5 -3210m? 
    2. Is the 32nm to 22nm manufacturing technology enough difference on it's own (even if the rest of architecture is the same) to prevent this from working? 
    3. Is bios of my g6 motherboard somehow identyfying installed processor? (if it's not on "the list" it will simply not run?" or is it only technical compatibility matter?
    According to some statements which I found on some IT forums and sites (and some self researched facts):
    Socket: both processors are compatible with BGA1023 socket. (at least that's what I found, if someone could confirm I would be grateful)
    Architecture difference: "The 3rd generation is called "Ivy Bridge," and is basically a copy of Sandy Bridge manufactured on a smaller scale, or die. However, Intel also focused on beefing up the integrated graphics in this generation."
    TDP: both are 35 W
    Cores: both are 2 physical (4 Virtual - thanks to hyperthreading I guess?)
    Power consumption: "the Ivy Bridge CPUs also use less power", "Ivy Bridge consumes a little less power; around 10w i think."
    Temperature: i5 -3210m goes 5*C higher than i3-2330m - shouldn't do much difference
    Looking forward to some replies, RacA
    This question was solved.

    It is not a technical (socket) incompatibility since as you likely know Ivy Bridge and Sandy Bridge are backward compatible on most desktop motherboards. However, HP has only implemented 2d gen Intel Core processor compatibility on the HM65 Express chipset which yours has. Motherboards that will support 3rd gen CPUs use the HM77 chipset. There is no other motherboard that will fit in your chassis. 
    Your analysis above, which was pretty good, left out the chipset, which you always have to think about when assessing upgrade possibilities:
    http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-Intel_%28chipsets%29/HM65_Express.html
    The HM65 does support a couple 3rd gen CPUs but none of them is on HP's list for your model. You could try one of the ones listed in the link I gave but I think there is a very small chance they will work.

  • Hp 550 upgrade of memory and cpu with possible unconventi​onal tweaks. not ideal, but no other choice

    HI guys, I hope you can help or at least give a point in the right direction.I'm a freelance photographer using much of the Adobe CS6 creative suite. After a disaster of a week I came home to find that the mother board on my editing workstation somehow is fried. I have no idea what happened though i wouldn't put it past my roommates carelessness.
    I'm desperate. I need to finish my current job before I am able to afford to buy a replacement. So I am forced to rely on stopgap measures, out of desperation to finish my project, which are less than ideal, but so far are faring better than I'd hoped.
    Im a photographer, Capture One, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, Adobe Photoshop and Premiere Pro are the go to workhorse applications i need to work. without them i have no income. in order to have this machine run these apps,
    the machine i have left is an old hp 550 which was gathering dust in the closet. It was built for 32 bit Win XP and in no way is intended to run the power hog adobe products I use, especially Lightroom.
    Unfortunately Lightroom PS, and Premiere are 64 bit programs and LR and Premiere are hyper threaded. so I did research, and with the help of the windows 7 upgrade adviser utility's list of instructions I was able to get windows 7 Pro 64 bit to install and run.
    I know this isnt the ideal machine or situation but for a few weeks, i need to make it work.
    I really just have 2 simple questions. I had first gone to HP tech support. but they were not helpful. since the Laptop's warranty is long gone, they wouldnt even be polite and basically told me to shove off. Then on another forum, I argued back and forth with a know it all who consistently insisted that there was no way no how this pc could run 64 bit win 7, to which i thought what am i seeing things? its been running fine for 3 months. so i decided to come to you. your forums have been helpful on many occassions.
    basically I need this machine to be able to run these programs for the next month or so, until i can purchase a new machine.
    essentially, what I would like to know is will the motherboard support an upgrade of the processor? and if it will, what would you suggest as a replacement, considering my needs? The Core 2 duo is the barest minimum of what i can limp along with as photo/video rendering times are excessively slow.
    next I was talking to the crucial tech support staff about memory upgrades. and possibly tweaking the bios to force it to run 8 gigs of ram. they said they cold find no version of bios that would make that possible, but that by already forcing it to run 64 bit, that already allowed the pc to utilize the full 4 gigs of ram, which had been impossible in the 32 bit format. He then suggested that i buy 2 4 gig modules such as 4GB DDR2 PC2-5300 Unbuffered NON-ECC 1.8V 512Meg x 64 which can be seen at http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/memory/ct51264ac667 and try installing the full 8 gigs and see what would happened, saying he had a feeling i could get lucky. his logic being that the 64 bit system already opened up the ram limitations and who knows, you cant make an omelette without cracking some egg shells! he seemed very optimistic. So what do you think? does this seem likely to you because i would love it to work. or do you think the guy was a quack? and this whole endeaver is a waste of time and money?
    also any other suggestions about how to weather this month long storm that dont involve suggestions of buying new machines would be appreciated!

    Here is the Manual:
    Service Manual
    Unfortunately the maximum configuration is a T5670 processor 1.8 ghz and 4 gigs of DDR2-667 memory which you already have. The CPU includes the 64 bit instruction set so it is not surprising it can run 64 bit Windows 7. My best advice is to save your money for when you can get a real working machine. The only other upgrade likely to help at all is a solid state drive, which you could use in the laptop and then also use in the new computer you are going to buy.

  • Am preparing to replace my hard drive and also upgrade to snow leopard.  I've already backed up to an external hard drive via time machine.  Should I just follow instructions via manual, or is there some other literature available to help?

    Haven't used this forum for several years,   all looks new.  Am going to install 750 GB scorpio black hard drive,  while I'm at it,  will upgrade to 10.6.  Any step by step info available beside the manual?   Did upgrades with my old G4 and it wasn't that difficult.  Have not worked on my macbook pro.  any info would be appreciated. 

    If you value your sanity, don't upgrade both things at once. Buy a new hard drive, format it, clone your existing drive to it, boot from it externally to make sure it's bootable, and then install it in your MBP. Use it long enough to make sure all is well. Then and only then, upgrade your OS on it. If anything goes wrong with your installation/upgrade, you have the original hard drive that you can clone onto the new drive to get back to where you were before the aborted upgrade.
    If you do major hardware and software upgrades at the same time (i.e., without careful testing in between) and anything goes amiss, you may not have any idea which upgrade is responsible for the problem or even when the problem began. When making big changes, make them one at a time.
