Can I change an intel cpu and motherboard to one with an AMD processor?
elmocrc9 asked:
Ok,
I have an HP pavilion 754n, with a P4 2.5ghz and only supports 1GB of ram.
I allready have a new case which will allow me to switch into a better motherboard.
I dont necesarrily want a duo core or X2 processor at the moment but I would want to upgrade it soon, my questions are.
Can I change my motherboard and CPU into an AMD eventhough I have a P4. Do all motherboards support both kinds of CPUs?? I know the socket is what matters but does it have to be a specific type of motherboard if its AMD or Intel? Also my hard drive has Windows XP Home Edition allready installed in it and it didnt come with the CD, I really do not want to have to buy Windows XP again, will changing the motherboard ruin my stuff?? I dont mind backing up my files I just want to keep windows XP.
Thanks!
I think I can get order the XP CD from HP.com with only a shipping charge, so will that do the trick??? If not will the CD key on the sticker on the side of the PC useful to reactivate my Windows ???
