here what HP/Copaq just email back to me
Thank you for writing back to us.
you for contacting HP Total Care.I understand your inquiry about processor upgrade in your Presario 8QSXE1 and I am sure that the following information will assist you in this matter.I would like to let you know that the maximum processor upgrade that can be installed in your computer is AMD Athlon? XP processor 1.667 GHz.To upgrade your Compaq computer's processor,
I see that you need jumper settings of the system board to install the upgrade processor in the system.
The board has auto jumpers that sets the FSB automatically once you install the processor. There is no need of changing any jumpers.
However, the processor upgrade needs to done carefully as the processor pins are very sensitive and if a pin damaged then you cannot use the processor.
Hence, to upgrade your Compaq computer's processor, I recommend that you take the computer to the nearest HP Authorized Support Provider.
HP has a network of Authorized Support Providers for sales and repairs. You can find the nearest HP Authorized Support Provider within the United States by visiting the following Web site:
wow they make sound like making repairs on the space shuttel

Do a google for Aida32. Download and run it, and tell us what it says your motherboards chipset is. Also what speed the memory is.
