Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Thanks for the reply. Not worried about the warranty. It'll be out before I would do this swap anyhow. I know it's not soldered onto the motherboard. It's a ZIF socket. (I've seen pictures of the motherboard)
Probably will contact HP....though I expect the response that it's not upgradeable.
Hey all,
I've got an HP Pavillion DV8000 running a Turion ML-34 1.6Ghz processor right now. That's coupled to an HP 309B stock system board.
I'm curious if anyone out there has done a processor upgrade on one of these laptops and could tell me what cpu upgrade options there are as far...
