Upgrading your memory (RAM) would help in the running of 10.5 and 10.6 but will not help with your need to upgrade software problem P.

Apple had stopped selling this disk for a while and now they have made it available again.

Handbrake 10.4.11 Install The App

Installing Snow Leopard will install the App Store, which will allow you to update to Mountain Lion (OS X 10.

I just performed these upgrades on my mothers old iMac and it worked great.

Is there anyway I can convert from a Core Duo processor to a Core 2 Duo processor Ive bought some ram from Crucial and so Im not sure how much to use, I have two 2GB ram disk things.

You can find installation instruction videos for a variety of Macs here.

The only model where the processor is upgradable (to a point) is the Mac Pro, which I highly doubt you have.

If you want faster speeds, your only options are to max out your RAM memory, or move up to a newer model.

The first C2Ds only had the 32 bit firmware, and can only upgrade to Lion.

You cant download Leopard or Snow Leopard on it because they are Intel chips.

I have Lion 10.7.5 on mine.

Lion is reputed to be so slow and I can attest to that.

If the mother board hadnt gone out of my old one, I would have kept it to just use as a word processor to write my memoirs on.

The techs were able to put that old hard-drive on my new machine.

I had a lot stored on that hard-drive and a lot to delete from it.

Thats a shame, but good to know before I go ahead an spend lots on it trying to upgrade it.

There is NO chip incompatibility with your old hard drive, it will function perfectly well attached to almost any computer, including your new one.

ALL the data on that drive would have been intact and usable, had you connected it to your new machine.

Some of the applications on it may not run because they were not written for the Intel processor which you have in your new machine.

I have hard drives attached to my iMac i7 that were attached to my G3 and G4 workstations) The only correct statement I see in your post is the first one where you stated that Apple had stopped updating 10.4 The rest of it, especially the part where you tell the OP that the only option is to purchase a new computer P.

I am glad that you have set me straight and I hope my info didnt cause too much trouble.
