    Has anybody tried migrating their .vhdx file from a physical drive of a machine to a virtual machine .vmdk in vmware? Trying to bring my Win7 environment to a virtual environment on my desktop in vmware. I converted the .vhdx file to vmware's .vmdk format using STARWIND V2V converter but it somehow made 2 .vmdk files, 1 was 1kb and the other was the actual size of the disk which is around 160 gigs. It was suppose to be easy by just swapping .vmdk files in the VM folder but ran into some issues. Any input would help.

    Name a few barriers that would keep a CPU from reaching its full frequency...my I7-3630qm doesn't seem to want to go passed 1.2ghz on my CPU-z bench test. I know one would be changing the power management option to 100%. My BIOS is the regular Hyde program that's default to HP laptops so no tweaking functions in there.

    Been running CPU-Z bench test to see if i can reach the rated frequency of my i7 3630qm 2.4ghz (3.4 turbo) but it doesnt want to go pass 1.2ghz, even when plugged in. I check my power option settings and its at max for CPU. I know Turbo frequency is an automatic feature. I cant think of anything else I can do to unleash the rated frequency. What am I missing?

    This laptop only excepts DDR2 RAM so 800MHz is the max it can take. So Im down to a few Chips now. Still got my eye on the Core 2 Extreme X9000 which is around $88

    Yea, I have and SSD already installed. Just trying to get the most out of this dino so i can use this particular laptop as a penetrating test work station.
  6. globalgrip
    And since my laptop only excepts DDR2 then my max FSB would have to be 800mhz

    HP DV5-1235dx with this chipset http://www.intel.com/content/dam/doc/product-brief/mobile-gm45-intel-gs45-gl40-express-chipsets-brief.pdf
  8. globalgrip
    Says my chipset http://ark.intel.com/products/35135/Intel-82PM45-Memory-Controller-Hub#@specifications FSB can support up to 1066mhz so Im thinking X9100
  9. globalgrip
    Actually I was looking at this X9000 chip http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/CPUs/Intel/Core_2_Extreme_Mobile/X9000.html
  10. globalgrip
    Thanks for the input gentelmen. And remember, Linus brought us all here.
  11. globalgrip
    Yea, thats the exact chip i was looking at too. I'll keep that cooling into consideration. Thanks
  12. globalgrip
    Yea, that was my assumption. That pretty much confirms it. I just used this list as my reference since they are all the same Socket P's. Was wondering if i could just replace one with the other. http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/CPUs/Intel/Core_2_Extreme_Mobile/QX9300.html
  13. globalgrip
    Its actually PGA478MN

    There shouldnt be a problem upgrade a 2 core cpu machine to a 4 core cpu on the same motherboard right? Other than upgrading the Bios. RAM should still be compatible for the same type of CPU. Penryn models Intel Core 2 Duo T6400 to Intel Core 2 Quad Extreme QX9300.
