AMD Phenom X4 9750 Quad Core Processor HD9750XAGHBOX - 2.40GHz, 4MB Cache, 1800MHz FSB - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

You will need a cable like this one:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5M-Metre-3-5mm-Stereo-Audio-Jack-2x-Twin-Male-RCA-Phono-Plugs-Gold-Cable-Lead-/280749715818?pt=UK_Computing_CablesConnectors_RL&hash=item415dfcb16aOne end connects to your PC and the other to the audio input connections on your TV.

Greetings - Even though the CPU is Quad core you could get by fine with a 350W PSU, unless of course you're going to have a killer juice sucking high end video card and/or are planning to overclock your CPU.

A good quality 450-500W would give you plenty of margin. More important to get quality vs rating numbers. Cheaper manufacturers tend to overstate the specs of their PSU's.

Enjoy your new CPU!

It is possible that the processor may be defective but that is very rare. Take the processor off of the motherboard and reseat it. Make sure that you are using thermal paste(preferably aluminum) properly. The motherboard has a function in it that if the processor overheats it will shut the computer down to prevent damage. Also check to make sure that you RAM is fully seated and also that it is compatible with your motherboard. I have seen several instances where the RAM was not compatible with the motherboard and the computer will not boot.

Hi,I'd say if your up and running and the system keeps running for more then 10 min's.No the cpu is most likely still good.The problem is that when the system was crashing it lost some files,getting all the file links back can be very tedious,I'd recommend formatting the hard drive and reinstalling all your app's.Save all you can before the format as you will lose everything thats on the hard drive.Hope this has been helpfull plesae rate!!

This processor need better cooling system as it is powerful it need more power so I suggest you to upgrade your Power Supply and buy more efficient processor fan cooler. Also you should check if processor is properly installed on motherboard and there should be some special thermal grease between processor and motherboard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_grease) for better thermal conductivity

if it shuts down alot, its probably overheating due to cpu or graphics cards overheating.

check that coolers are not loose of clogged with dust, or even still running

Most motherboards have the manufacturer name and model number printed directly on the board. Go to the manufacturer's website (Google the name, ASUS for example) then go to the support or downloads section and download the manual, usually in PDF format. Instructions will be there.

Also, if that fails, most motherboards print the power, reset and HDD led locations next to the jumper block itself (use a magnifying glass if you have to, the print is usually very small), trial and error can help.

There seems to be some sort of incompatibility issue between your motherboard and the Phenom, or maybe some option is not enabled in the motherboard bios that windows is only sensing half of the GHz, like if the processor is only running 2 cores instead of 4.

About the memory diference, that same problem is because the 64bit difference. Unless you have a 64bit XP you won't see the full 4GB. Windows XP is limited to 3 or 3.5GB of ram it can use, you are showing 2.75 maybe because some video board is integrated in your motherboard and it may be borrowing an extra 0.25GB from the 3GB that are usable under windows XP 32bit OS.

Please comment what motherboard you have, since the cpu alone can't be blamed nor configured.

I would try the AMD web site. If still available, you will find one there.

Perhaps the monitor is faulty? Did you check that with a device known to work. Listen to Larry though, he is the Hardware Guru here at Fixya.

USB 2 and 3 are the data speed capability of the interface it is possible to connect a USB3 flashdrive into a usb2 socket all that will happen is the files will transfer slower than on a usb3 socket. Hope this was helpful.

Your machine is very short of power required for win 10, I would like to see at least 8 GB ram, and a faster processor, yours is at the bottom of tests. Perhaps you should look at a new machine with win 10 installed. You cannot upgrade xp to win 10. You will have to purchase a win 10 license, you missed the free upgrade period.

yes but fresh install will be needed.back up important docs first

yes you can. Win 7 win8 win 8.1 are no supported by Microsoft, only win 10.

Hi Amanda. check this link out. https://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/sln128890/how-to-connect-a-monitor-to-a-pc-?lang=en or this one. how to connect monitor to the tower Google Search

on the ask a question page , type in the make , model year, type of equipment and the problem that you have and post it

Had this problem on a touchpad. Solved by downloading touchfreeze Check if touchfreeze has software for your OS

This red light usually indicated the ground on the outlet the UPS is connected to is not properly connected to ground. It could also mean the ground and neutral wires on the connected outlet are reversed.
