159921 2003-07-15 08:13:00 Hi, I am thinking on upgrading my CPU, at the moment i have a 800MHz duron, i don't no the maximum speed processor my motherboard can handle, if i upgrade to a processor that was to fast would it harm my MB,
or would it just not start, i have tryed to research my MB but can only find that its a standard compaq.
Thanks

159924 2003-07-15 23:57:00 Compaqs usually have a model number on the back of the case near the rear panel. Try that number by e-mailing HP/Compaq for assistance. BTW as you are running an 800 duron then you should be able to go up to the 1300 duron without any problems They are abou $56 brand new. Or you can enter the model number into the box on this page may help you out. productfinder.support.hp.com Odin (227)
