Sr1500nx

I have an SR1500NX currently with max RAM installed.  Is there an MB (Asus or other) that will fit in the same case which supports a multicore processor and more than 2GB of RAM .... hopefully with SATA II or III as well.

@itstechpro,
I understand you want to know about upgrading your motherboard.  In general, upgrading the motherboard would result in newer sata ports as well as a higher memory capacity.  This would also upgrade the chipset since this resides on the motherboard.  You can certainly purchase a new system to get what you want, but it's not the only way.  You may also find that the back plate of the tower doesn't quite fit right with the new motherboard as well.  However, like Xqzit states, I believe purchasing a new system is the best option in the end.  If you upgrade the motherboard, you will need to look at the cost of the processor, RAM, and possibly the power supply in addition to the cost of the motherboard.  With a new system, it would also be under warranty for at least one year.
If you do decide to proceed with upgrading the motherboard, be sure to look for micro ATX form factor motherboards such as these.

  • CD/DVD inop on Presario SR1500NX

    Anyone able to help with driver for TSST Corp CDW/DVD TS-H492A on Compaq Presario SR1500NX using Windows XP?  The computer has SP3 installed.  The drive no longer works--will not spin up a CD or DVD--shows yellow exclamation point on hardware section for computer.  I have tried uninstall, turn off then turn on computer without success.  Also have another DVD drive:  MegaSTOR 18X Triple Format DVD+-RW Internal Drive (Mad Dog TF-DVDRW TSH 652D that is having the same problem.  They worked in the past, just stopped working now.  I would appreciate any help.

I sincerely appreciate your help!  Awesome support--you made my evening!
    Hello CrashComp, Thanks for those kind words. I must admit, I have experienced this very issue many, many times in the past, on other systems that come to me from friends, and others, so it was not exactly new to me.
    I recall when I first encountered this problem, I reinstalled the operating system to get this issue resolved. That was years ago, but I never forgot it and it still shows up from time to time for many Windows XP users.
    You would think Microsoft would have corrected this before now, but they are weaning everyone from Windows XP so they have no time to devote to Windows XP.
    Please click the White Kudos star on the left, to say thanks.

  • "Disc Burner or Software Not Found" AHH

    please help,
    before itunes 7 i was able to burn discs on a daily basis.
    Itunes 7 gives me this error and i think it is linked to not being an administrator on my computer. How can multpile users backup their music with only one administrator, everything would be on one library. Please give me a solution.
    Thank you

    When i go into control panel, it does not say what rights i have, but i think i have none. Also, i cant burn dvds through nero because it wont give me access to the disc drives. This is the kind of properties i think itunes 7 has now. here are my diagnostics.

    Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.
    Check the Windows Update website to verify that you have the latest service packs and patches for your OS. Service packs affect the performance of USB and firewire CD / DVD drives.
