Difference between a laptop and desktop processor?
There is no difference between a laptop and desktop CPU. DIFFERENCE IN USE: LAPTOP - is intended for mobile people but in reality we put it at the top of table or desk - better we call it as "NOTEBOOK" only, then we have no problem in using it at the top of table. DESKTOP - is intended at the top of a desk, but in reality or mostly installed below or under the table or desk. Also they call it as CPU??? So what shall we call the real CPU (Processor) in the motherboard? POCKET PC - is intended for mobile people and to placed in jeans pocket, but in reality we put it in our clutch bag, etc. or at the side of belly belt… ADDITIONAL INFO: You will find and read this Warning in all Notebook User's Manual... DO NOT PUT THE NOTEBOOK PC ON YOUR LAP OR OTHER PARTS OF THE BODY TO AVOID INJURY FROM HEAT!
Why will software written for the core CPU generally run on the core 2 duo CPU?
One would assume software written specifically for the Core 2 Duo wouldn't work with any other processor. However, there are very few if any examples of this.
Software that is compatible with the Core 2 Duo, however, is generally compatible with the Core i7.
Microprocessors are hardwired to perform a limited preprogrammed set of activities called a(n)?

What are the types of processor?
As of mid 2016, you are probably looking for an Intel i7 series.
Some sites say that the i7 6700k is the very best for gaming. It has four cores and eight threads. It has an 8MB cache and supports DDR4 and DDR3L.
Other sites say that the i7 5960X is the best. It is definitely more expensive, but it depends on who you talk to as to whether they will tell you it is definitely better, or whether the performance is close to identical, and you should get the cheaper one. :)
Where are microprocessors used?
Today, micro processors are included in almost any electronical device: computers, and any computer-like device such as mobile phones, PDAs, digital video cameras or recorders, digital cameras, etc. Microprocessors are also used in many cars (or: vehicles in general), domestic appliances like washing machines, refrigerators, microwave ovens or coffee makers. Basically, almost any electronic device, or device that uses electronics, employs some form of a micro processor.
The group of devices using micro processors even extends to those devices that were traditionally pure electrical, or electro-mechanic, devices such as light switches or light bulb holders, thermostatic raditor valves, and so forth. With intelligent building control technologies, those devices are increasingly converted into smart, computerized, electronics devices that have local intelligence (by way of a local micro processor), and communicate through networking technologies similar to the way your PC communicates with this site via the Internet.
AnswerThere are actually 2 microprocessors in the iPhone: The processor and the baseband. The baseband controls wireless functions of the iPhone such as bluetooth and telephone connection. This processor is a resource to the main processor which is used to control the user interface and higher-level systems of the Phone, such as applications that the user is likely to interact with.What refers to the process of translating an instruction into signals the computer can execute?
The process of translating instructions into signals the computer can execute has different names, depending on the type of instructions considered.
In the end, the micro processor reads a pattern of (typically) 8, 16 or 32 binary signals forming one instruction (or part of one instruction). The micro processor's hardware decodes this pattern to execute the instruction. Characteristic for the decoding is that this is a predominantly hardware-controlled implicit process; no extra steps or tools are required. Decoding is an intrinsic part of every micro processor.
The process of translating human-readable instructions of machine language into the aforementioned binary signals is called assembly, and uses a software tool called an Assembler to translate a human-readable form of a single machine instruction (and sequences of those) into (sequences of) patterns of binary signals, so-called machine instructions.Characteristic for the assembly translation is a one-to-one relationship between the human-readable form and the binary form of the same instruction. The set of instructions in this language is called the Assembly language, and is specific to each micro processor family, sometimes to each model within a given family.
The process of translation instructions expressed in a higher-level language into machine instructions (sometimes translating into Assembly language as an intermediate step) is called compilation, using a tool called a Compiler.Characteristic for compilation is a 1-to-many relationship between the high-level language instruction and the corresponding machine instructions.

What is the significance of processor speed on computing?
The system mother board has a clock speed; two to three-times this is usually the memory speed, and four-times this is most always the Front Side Bus (FSB) speed. Think of an 18-speed bicycle. The lower the gear ratio the steeper the hill you can pedle up. For the CPU it is the higher the CPU Core speed the more computer instructions you can process. The point is... how many instructions/how steep is the hill you have to deal with; will determine how important getting that next CPU core multiple of the base clock speed. CPU core speed multiples is more like the bike going down-hill, sometimes you just can't peddle fast enough to keep your feet on the peddles. Most of us don't really have the data cruching need for that extra $100 or $300 for those fractions of a second we will save going from a core multiple of 9 to 10 or 11 times the board frequency; which is also the ratio of speed boost, 10:11 is not much of an improvement. Most important is getting the computer with the features you need. When it costs a $100 more for the next CPU core multiple and your only speending $100 on a video board or only getting 512 MB of memory... get the $200 video board or get the 2 GB of the fastest memory... for your system mother board!
What chemical element are computer processors made of?
Sounds like a crossword clue, to which the answer is most likely Silicon. Nowadays silicon is becoming old hat.
Who invented modern day soccer?
The original football (soccer goal) actually consisted of tape - which stretched the whole length of the goal-line an two posts. This was later modified by the FA to goalposts and a solid crossbar, and the goals were reduced in size to 24 feet across by 8 feet in height.
The set of goals as we know them today came about because of a simple invention - the net at the back and sides of the goal - by a Liverpudlian engineer, John Brodie, back in 1889. Previous to this, there were many disputes as to whether the ball went over the line, so Brodie´s invention saved many arguments as to whether a goal had actually been scored. The Football League approved use of the goal-net in 1890.
Central processing Unit: It takes in information from an input and interprets the data.
What is the set of rules called the govern Canada?
Canada has a self-ruled government. They have a constitution that they follow.
What is difference between microprocesser and microcontroller?
An embedded system has historically been defined as a single function product where the intelligence is embedded in the system. It could be anything from a dishwasher to a hearing aid, if that product includes a microprocessor and software. Many of today's embedded systems are looking more like PCs with user interfaces, touchscreens, displays, keypads and more. Still, these are not general function systems but are designed to perform very specific functions. An embedded system makes use of embedded hardware (microprocessor) and embedded software to accomplish its purpose. Embedded software is generally comprised of: * Real-time operating system (RTOS) * Drivers (HW peripheral interface) * Application software
Difference between 8051 and 8751 micro controllers?
There are many differences between the 8085 and the 8086/8088. Naming just a few...
If anyone has any more examples, please fee free to add to the list.
What is more accurate Duel Core or Core 2 Duo?
Seeing as Core 2 Duo sounds redundant (since 2 is the same as duo), I would say that Duel Core is more accurate, unless they are two different things. If they aren't the same, core 2 Duo could be an upgrade from duel core, but that just might be just me.
How do you connect two monitor to one PC?
Depending on the motherboard model, you may need to use a PCI video card. On some of the Gateways, the on board video is using the AGP, so if you put an AGP card in, the on board shuts itself off. Just go to newegg.com or other computer parts seller and purchase a dual head video card.
What is pin configuration of microprocessor 8088?
the pin configuration of a processor means that the diagramatic representation of block diagram of processor representing various pins and the function of that pins

How much gold is in a computer processor?
Not much, since the gold is typically just a thin plate over copper traces. Printed circuit gold is usually only one or two mils thick and you'd need several boards to make up an ounce of gold. It IS worth it, but you'd need to process several boards to make it worth your time and effort.
