  1. Upgrading laptop


    I have a Dell Latitude E6440 with 4GB of memory and an HDD. I've found the specifications and double and triple checked my laptop can support an upgrade to an SSD and 16GB of memory, along with the tutorials to do both. I'm still fairly new in the world of pc's and upgrading though, is there anything I need to be careful of or avoid, or anything I need to make sure of before/during doing this?

  3. No more touchpad for my laptop since upgrading to Windows 10

    Hi Derek,

    I would suggest the following steps :

    • Press Windows + X
    • Click on Device Manager
    • Right click on TouchPad drivers in the list.
    • Choose Upgrade Drivers
    • Reboot computer

    Check if this helped to fix the issue.

    Upgrading laptop

    Core 2 Duo for laptop CQ40-314TU

    I have found something about CPU Upgrade on the Intel's Website, the manufacturer of my laptop's chipset (GM45 Chipset). Currently, the CPU which this laptop is using (Dual Core T3400) is NOT in this list: http://ark.intel.com/chipset.aspx?familyID=35509
    The laptop's chipset also support Core 2 Extreme Technology, which I think the latest CPU Technology.
    I have another laptop called Acer Aspire 5572ANWXMi that is using the chipset 945GM which support the T7600 (like you suggested) and it is in this list: http://ark.intel.com/chipset.aspx?familyID=22816
