I've created a report of my computer. Tell me if you want it? Well, it's here: http://www.boaser.net/Report.htm Note: The capital R, and .htm, not .html..

I'm just guessing a bit here, but, in the report, it gives links to websites with the processors etc, so I guess I can just get any of the ones that are in the list? Aslong as it's Intel.. Am I along the right lines?

Still need some help, please.

Hey, ass, do some of your own research. Find the specifications of your motherboard. If you find that, there should be a listing of what processors are supported, and thier speeds. You started this at 8 in the morning, and here it is after 3pm, and you still have no answers for yourself. What do you do all day? Get a hobby or a girl. My computer went down last sunday, and I didnt have back ups or anything. I was able to restore all my operating systems, drivers within 5 hours, after I did the research to know what I needed to know. Im sure within an hour or two, I could have all the information about your motherboard and its specs, and memorize it. At the bottom of your last listing, you say: - Should be everything you need to know of my computer. Apparently you know nothing of your own device. Why the hell should anyone else care, if you dont?

http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com/rl/peripherals/mainboards/cpu2.asp?Main=D1370 There is the listing of processors supported by the manufacturer. Since this appears to be an older board, you may be able to use a similar Celeron Processor that has a higher clock speed. Its probable that your board can support up to 1.8Ghz, most older ones can. http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com/rl/peripherals/mainboards/ram.asp?Main=D1370 There is the listing for the RAM that it supports. http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com/rl/peripherals/mainboards/detailed_overview_new.asp here is a handy little page that you can select different things from, might be useful. Honestly, it took me like 10 minutes to get this info. Whats your excuse.

My excuse? Is that I wouldn't know where to start, I am not one who is in good knowledge of the building and the way computers work. So, I came here, to ask for help on my problem, and I didn't post it at 8 in the morning, as I am from a different country to you, I guess. I live in the United Kingdom, I remember posting this sometime last night. I only have basic knowledge of how computers work, obviously, you have more knowledge. That is why I came here for help, for people like you (though I was hoping for more polite people) to help me. I didn't come here asking for insults, I came here for help, as I am unsure on the subject of upgrading computers, and how computers work in general. Thank you for your help, but there was no need to start insulting me.. why the hell would I be here if I knew where to look, and what to do?

Hmm, I have another question: I already have 1300MHz Processor, and if I get a new/add a new processor, will it add to the amount of 1300MHz, or simply replace it? This is the same with the RAM. Though, I think you can add to it? To make a total of whatever.

I read message #13 above and I think he's got an excellent point. Your computer is upgradable but, and I mean no disrespect, I don't think that you have what it takes to perform an upgrade. You are better off buying a new computer or leaving your current computer alone.

Check it out, Boaster: I was like you once, 17 and didnt know jack about my first computer. Im not trying to insult you, but until I got into the automotive field, I didnt use these kinds of forums for assistance. Now I troll them trying to offer helpful information as I can. When I got my first computer in 1999, the second day I had it, the damn thing wasnt recognizing my CD drive. Pissed me off, since it was like 1200 bucks out the window. And when something didnt work, back then I just went nuts trying to figure it out. I voided my warrenty and opened the case, couldnt find anything. Turns out, I had the CD tray open when I restarted it. Somehow the BIOS didnt detect it because of that. I thrashed that computer for almost 4 years, upgrading and doing what I could on it. I learned alot on that first computer by making those mistakes. But I also did my research and gained the knowledge that I needed from going insane. Here I am at 25, with no formal computer training, and I finally decided to go for it. The great things about computer is that the advancements seem to go slower when you understand it. You can mark every major system in your computer and research a new thing everyday, and get information on that particular system. Its not hard to memorize some of this stuff. If you want to upgrade your computer, and dont know where to turn, this might be a good place to turn. Tell you what, Ill give you my email, and I will help you. I spend all day messing with my computers, and I have no problems searching for other information, it makes me better at it. wissnx01@yahoo.com
