MSI has not produced many dual processor boards. The Athlon socket motherboard for MP processors is for 266 DDR FSB chips only. It may pose a problem if the user wanted to upgrade to something better, as the chip would likely not support a 333 FSB or beyond cpu.

However, there are some newer dual opteron motherboards that look promising. Try "googling" 'dual opteron motherboard' and see what results come up. Bear in mind that AMD is going to release a dual core CPU which, in effect, are two cpus on one chip.

What is the fastest processors that is compatible with my motherboard if i have an AMD Duron processor right now?

If you have an AMD Duron processor, those run on a Socket A motherboard, which is very outdated in 2011. No major retailers sell processors for such an old socket. I would recommend an upgrade, as Newegg.com has Socket AM3 (the newest AMD processor socket) Sempron processors for as low as $36.99 and AM3 motherboards for as low as $39.99.

Why do you install RAM and CPU before installing the motherboard into the case?

You don't have to do this, but it is generally easier to manipulate the motherboard and components before you put it inside the case, which due to limited space can make it rather awkward. On the other side, if a motherboard is installed prior to components, it will have a lot more support from its holding brackets etc. This can be very important for installations that may put pressure/bend the motherboard body. A good example of this, as pointed out by ID1198720506 are components which use latch/snap mechanisms to lock on to the motherboard.

Intel i3 processor laptop that has a core i3 processor you want to install XP with SP2 but there is a blue screen error pls help you?

You most likely have a motherboard/BIOS that is is not compatabile with Windows XP as for your computer is newer and the graphics card might be a problem. I would not recommend downgrading anyways because windows 7 has better security and easier to use once you get used to it.


What is the maximum number of processors that can be run from a single motherboard?

It depends on the motherboard. There are some that allow you to run two CPUs, but you can't buy any old motherboard and shove two processors in there. I'd recommend just getting a dual, quad, or sextuple core CPU because having multiple CPUs doesn't up speed, it is like having a dual core processor. Not all programs can use multiple cores, so it is, in my opinion, much better to just get 1 multi-core CPU than to get multiple CPUs.

Does mercury PI845GLM motherboard support to P4 1.5Ghz?

Yes. All Pentium 4 boards with Socket 478 support a 1.4 GHz Pentium 4. I would highly recommend not buying such a processor with a low clock; The PI845GLM series all supports much higher clock rates. Even the oldest board in the series can support a 2.93 GHz processor.


How to investigate and recommend a suitable replacement CPU for PC?

I would ask myself if it is worth of effort. Three scenarios make a CPU upgrade worthwhile: Moving from a Celeron to a Pentium, switching to a version of your current CPU that's at least 50 percent faster than the one you already have, and shifting from a traditional processor architecture to dual-core. I would start by finding out which CPUs my PC's motherboard supports and chose the fastest processor my motherboard will accept. Then I would check the device's documentation and visit the manufacturer's Web site. It is important to check if BIOS is up to date and supports the CPU.


A core i7 920 processor from an Intel dx58s0 desktop motherboard has gone bad what processor would you recommend for the replacement?

The Core i7-920 runs on the LGA 1366 socket, with a clock speed of 2.67 GHz and a power consumption of 130 watts. A recommended replacement is the Core i7-950, at about $300 from Newegg. It has a 3.06 GHz clock speed and a power consumption of 130 watts, which makes it an ideal replacement for your i7-920.
