Solve : Can a 32bit based computer be changed to 64bit without changing the motherboard?? |
|
Answer» Taking for example Dell Dimension 4700, or Dell Optiplex GX260. Taking for example Dell Dimension 4700, or Dell Optiplex GX260.Sometimes, if replacement cpu hardware compatible with the motherboard. I would not recommending upgrading either one of these to Win7-64bit. They are too old & too slow. Win7-64bit needs a minimum of 4GB RAM.well i have 4 gb installed but only 3 are useable and its SAD because a lot of games cannot be played smoothly on inDell Dimension 4700, Dell Optiplex GX260, both 32 bit hardware. You cannot upgrade either to any 64 bit cpu. I have a Dell that can run 64 bit Windows 7. But I had a problem with it. Somebody did an 'upgrade' by using a newer CPU with BETTER PERFORMANCE. Sad to say, it was not fully compatible with eh chip set and the video was not reliable. It is a DX 520. I had to find the older CPU. And it works fine now on windows 7. Now here is the sad part. I can not run Windows 8.1 on it. There is an instruction that is not found on the CPU. End of the road. Moral of the story: Older computers and not a good choice for new 64 bit Operating SYSTEMS. Avoid using a computer over 7 years old unless you know for sure it has been tested for 64 bit Windows.thanks, i'll sell those oldies then |
