Presario 7594 needs to be upgraded
Hey all,
I have a Presario 7594 and I need some help. It has a socketed CPU, and I would like to know how fast of a Pentium 3 I can use on it. Next do I need to change any motherboard settings to make it work? Then what kind of memory do I need to use? PC 100, or PC 133? Thanks for all your help. |

Presario 7594 needs to be upgraded
According to the product specs on the HP web site, the CPU is a 566MHz Celeron.
Without spending really serious money, you can upgrade it using either a 1.1GHz Celeron or a 933MHz Pentium 3. Above these speeds, the CPU operating voltage is lower and most likely not supported by the motherboard. The motherboard chipset is an Intel 810, so you can use either PC100 or PC133 memory with either CPU...

Can I just swap chips withought jumpers? |

They both perform more or less the same. No jumper changes needed... Ben Myers

I think I will use win 2000. But my choices are ME, 2000, XP. I think 2000 would suite it best |
