    Puedes probar actualizado a un core 2 duo t9600 compatible con este modelo, velocidad de 2.8 ghz, y con ello el rendimiento mejorará bastante

      @@humbertoferreira8856 hi, i did not upgrade the bios, because when i bought the laptop it had already this cpu, i think that you could find the latest version of the bios (the mobo is the Acer JV50) in the internet. (Sorry for my bad english, im italian). Specs are: Core 2 Duo T9600, mobo Acer JV50, 8gb DDR2, geforce g105m. The bios is Phoenix.

    Actually love the modular design of these old laptops and the fact you could just swap out the CPU like that, I have a Dell G5 SE it's not as painful to open but CPU/GPU soldered on the board :/

    • @MacintoshMen
      @MacintoshMen  Před 2 lety

      There are in fact a lot of great Aspires which are modular but there you only have to take of a plate at the bottom. This one is just crap though, it reminds me a lot of HPs.

    Can I install any operating system like truenas or it's locked for only windows XP

      You can install any OS, no PC is tied to Windows. My guess is that something with your boot stick is wrong so that it doesn't show up.

      That laptop has a sub model attached to 5720. For anyone to help they need the full model number. Is the GPU a modular card on the laptop or directly soldered to the motherboard? If it is directly soldered you are better off buying a replacement motherboard unless you have the specialized machines to remove a chip and add a chip to the motherboard.

    Přemýšlím o zrychlení notebooku ASPIRE 5738/5338, Model No MS2264. Osazený: CPU T6600, RAM 2x 2GB/1333 MHz. Zkusím použít CPU s 25W příkonem , tedy P8700. Nezkoušel to někdo? Myslím že by to mělo chodit i na Win 10. Tedy pro běžnou práci.
