| 1213375 | 2011-06-29 19:09:00 | Would windows need reactivating, or would it crash? Or would I have to reformat the hdd? Or will it be OK? Has anyone done this before?? Both are Intel CPU's. The other PC here is just too slow booting (its got a 800 fsb CPU in it at the mo with 4 GB). |

| 1213377 | 2011-06-29 21:38:00 | The mobo will support it (it supports 800 to 1600 fsb). So, I'll just replace the CPU | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
