samssong   10 #1 Posted January 30, 2017 I have an old Del 505 lap top that I have fired up today and found it in good working order if a little slow. It is on Windows XP and I am wondering if it can be upgraded to Windows 7 so as to bring it up to speck a little. Any thoughts please.

woah   10 #2 Posted January 30, 2017 Looking at the standard specifications it should run Windows 7, or even Windows 10 but it's going to be pretty slow owing to the CPU and onboard graphics. Drivers might not be available but Windows usually has drivers for older hardware built in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
samssong   10 #3 Posted January 31, 2017 It will run Windows 7 without any issues, you might want to upgrade memory module (RAM) if it's less than 1GB? other than that, everything will be fine.

Love2print   10 #4 Posted February 1, 2017 You can do it yourself as long as you buy the correct type of RAM, its very easy on a laptop as there should be a small removable panel on the base which needs unscrewing. I'd image MoZaLaN could fit it too for a fee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
