What is the relationship between the names of the Itanium processors and the steamship Titantic?
Itanic is a nickname that was coined for referring to Itanium. It is meant to denote the ship that sank Titanic. This is due to the failure of IA-64 that led to a heavy loss born by HP.
please hurry because i need it for something dire. kthx! :C
mike@acit. :D
pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase! :D
i found out that it can be used like that but, it depends on what your running
example I have this old game called fighters Anthology
I used to have destop
ran at 2.8ghz or 2,800mhz when I played my game on this P4 single CPU it ran at 2,548mhz
or 91% when I played on my HP laptop Dv7
T6400 just like yours
I got differnt look at it winows says my game runs at 60% of the total cpu power of T6400 of 4Ghz
60% is 2,400 but split 1200 each
NOW BF3 plays at
98% of T6400 or 3,9GHZ of 4GHZ
Any computer that uses a 64 bit word length for memory and/or registers. It can be any specific machine architecture: Intel x86, PowerPC, Arm, Cray supercomputers, DEC VAX, DEC Alpha, IBM Z-series, etc. The important thing is that it process data in 64 bit words.
How did they come up with the idea of a computer?
Charles Babbage invented the computer
Several people came up with various ideas for automatic computing devices at various times and working on different tasks, all were motivated by the common problem of having to do massive amounts of computations that were painfully tedious to do without error. The final result of this quest is the modern computer.
How do you add and subtract 16 bit numbers using 8051 microprocessor?
The 8051 is a microcontroller, not a microprocessor. To add or subtract, use the ADD or SUBB opcodes.
Different between motorolla 6800 and Intel 8085?
in 8085 only one accumulator used where in 6800 used two accumulator.
What are two benefits of having more than one processor in a system?
You can run and install the latest software and games faster and less waiting, another benefit is you can run more things at once without your computer freakin out, I5 is a great choice, don't waste money on that I7, unless moneys not an issue. Take care
What is the best operating system for a classic Pentium 100?
If you are into video games, I would suggest some variant of DOS, such as MS-DOS or FreeDOS. If you want to use the computer as a desktop, I would recommend Damn Small Linux. If you want to run simple Windows-based programs, Windows NT 4 would be a fairly stable (though no longer secure) choice.
What developments have been most significant for processor?
What developments have been most significant to the processor and why?
A wafer is a thin, light biscuit or cookie, a piece of unleavened bread, or a soft disc made from flour.
Goto start -> Run and type winmsd.exe. This will bring up system info page. If the string next to Processor is x86, its a 32 bit machine . If the string next to processor is ia64 or AMD64 then its a 64 bit machine.

What is the interrupt number in 8085 microprocessor and how to find interrupt's vector address?
The 8085 has five interrupts, INTR, RST5.5, RST6.5, RST7.5, and TRAP. It also has eight software interrupts, RST0, RST1, ..., RST7.
The INTR interrupt requires a hardware response that is an opcode. Usually, the opcode is either a CALL instruction, in which case the interrupt vector can go anywhere in memory, or it is an RST instruction, in which case the vector is based on a table in low memory.
In the case of RST instructions, either directly or via INTR, or the RSTx.5 interrupts, you simply multiply the interrupt number by 8 to get the vector address. The following table presents the vector addresses for all possible interrupts...
RST 0 - 00H
RST 1 - 08H
RST 2 - 10H
RST 3 - 18H
RST 4 - 20H
TRAP - 24H
RST 5 - 28H
RST5.5 - 2CH
RST 6 - 30H
RST 6.5 - 34H
RST 7 - 38H
RST 7.5 - 3CH
Difference between Bus Clock and System Clock in Microcontrollers?
Bus Clock is based on the System Clock. In other terms Bus Clock is derived from system Clock. Bus Clock is usually half System Clock. (Busy Clock = System Clock / 2)
What is pipelining in pic microcontroller?
In PIC Microcontroller , During the Fatching of instruction no. 1
it needs of one clock cycle, then after for the exicution of instruction no. 1 it reqires one extra clock cycle , but at the same time it fatches inst. no. 2 . Similarly, during the execution time of inst. no. 2 , it fatches inst. no. 3 and so on.
In other words we can say that, PIC Microcontroller requires 2 clock cycle at starting the after it requires only one clock pulse. In this way we can say that instruction pipelining is done in PIC microcontroller.
Will it still work when my radiator fins for CPU cooler are damaged?
That will depend on the degree of the damage to the fins.
If some of the fins are slightly bent there should be no problem at all.
On the other hand if several of the fins are broken off the cooling will probably not be adequate,
Is the microprocessor's internal temperature sensor reporting an unusually high temperature (this is the easiest way to tell if cooling is working right or not)?
If clock frequency is 5 MHz how much time is required to execute an instruction of 18 T states?
At a clock frequency of 5 MHz (10 MHz crystal) the 8085 has a clock period of 200 ns. An instruction using 18 cycles would use 3.6 us. (Microseconds)
This is for the case with no wait states. Each wait state adds 200 ns. Since an 18 cycle instruction has 5 memory accesses, one wait state per access would add 1 us to the execution time.

How does Zinsser Watertite compare to UGL Dryloc?
I've tried both. I would say that Zinsser Watertite is superior to UGL Drylok.
Here's why: 1.) The Zinsser has a smoother finish...so it doesn't collect dirt as easy. And if it does, it wipes off easily. 2.) Drylok (latex, as I've never tried the oil), seemed to "yellow" as it aged. The Zinsser stayed white. 3.) The Zinsser stayed on incredibly well. Keep in mind, that surface prep is important. You don't want to put it on a dirt or dusty surface.
What is the evolution of Intel computer?
It starts with the 4004 chipset (4 bit) and 8008 microprocessor (8 bit).
The successor of the 4004 was the 4040, but this architecture was a dead end.
The successors of the 8008 were the 8080, 8085, 8086, 8088, 80186, 80286, 80386, 80486, Pentium, etc. including the current multicore microprocessors.
IBM chose to base their PC on the 8086 and 8088, then as successive newer microprocessors were developed new versions of the IBM PC used those microprocessors.
Intel also produced many specialized microprocessors and microcontrollers including some RISC microprocessors (e.g. i860, i960).
Current Apple Macintosh computers also use the latest Intel multicore microprocessors.
What is the worst possible processor to date?
To judge a processor as "bad", you have to ignore their performance relative to the newest ones on the market. Processors improve all the time, so just because one is older, slower, and lacks as many features as newer ones does not make the older one necessarily bad, just obsolete:
The worst processor in terms of quality control was probably the earliest editions of the original Pentium processor. These processors contained two infamous bugs. One was the f00f bug, which was a faulty instruction that could easily cause the processor to crash under normal operation. The second is known as the FDIV bug, which caused significant (though statistically uncommon) errors in floating point calculations. Intel replaced these processors free of charge for the lifetime of the processor, and the flaw was quickly fixed.
All VIA C3 processors offered performance less than half of that of a Pentium III at the same clock rate. The VIA C3 was meant to compete on power efficiency and heat output, not performance, so this may not be an important failing.
Later models of the Pentium 4 had a performance equivalent of an AMD processor with 2/3 the clock rate. Basically, the Pentium 4 needed an extra GHz to match an AMD Athlon 64 in performance.
How many registers are there in x86?
Considering "x86" ranging from 8086 up to 80486 (ok, Pentium too) 32-bit CPUs ,
there are 29 registers , as follows :
EAX, EBX, ECX, EDX, ESI, EDI, ESP, EBP, EIP, CS, DS, SS, ES, FS, GS, "Status(Flags)-Register" CR0, CR2, CR3, TR4, TR5, TR6, TR7 DR0, DR1, DR2, DR3, DR6, DR7

Is an Intel Celeron processor a dual core processor?
There are Celeron dual core processors today. However, just because you have Celeron processor, it does not mean your Celeron processor is a dual core processor. The easiest way to tell is to look at the Intel sticker on your computer. If it says "Dual Core," then it is dual core. If it does NOT say "Dual Core," then it is not dual core.
