Hi
I have got an Intel Pentium(R) III Coppermine (700mhz). I want to improve performance on my PC which is a Packard Bell iConnect 1200 and I have already upgraded my hard drive to a Maxtor 80GB and upgraded my RAM to 128MB and my OS to XP. I plan to upgrade the RAM to 256MB and later 512MB but I'm not sure about my processor.
Do I need to get a new motherboard if I wanted to get a new processor with more power e.g. more than 1ghz?
Could I replace it with a P4 or would I need a new MB?
Is it possible to take my old one out and put a new one in just like my RAM and HDD?
Thanks.
