Dell Inspiron 1525 and Windows 7's XP Mode

i found a guy that will trade for a t7300
any info about specs would be cool
thanks again at a loss also

Here is info about T7300. However, do consider my earlier advice in the last post.

OK
to clear the confusion
i understood as you
but one is socket p and one m
obviously dell has more than one mobo they put in the inspiron 1525
so it seems you where correct
dell just doesn't seem to want to share info without charging an arm and a leg
back to hp i guess for my own machines, great customer support
cant live in a box though if i want to learn
I'm only glad i can pass this on so as to avoid confusion for someone else. live and learn but sometimes it hurts. took a little bit of a loss.
i like you, read the same stuff on the CPU it seems they have more than one mobo for my machine as i said earlier
ill let you know how this works out, i should get the t7300 in about a week
thanks again you guys are the greatest

You are welcome; and thankyou for your update. Though, keep us posted whatever may be the result; and let us know if we can be of any further help.

can u send me the intel cpu comparison link again cant find it
t7300 rocks in my 1525
thanks

Well it is there, but any way, here it is again. I'm glad in the end things worked out for you. Regards

Tradeoffs on XPV mode for video capture

Hi everybody! I'd like some advice please..

I've got an older USB video capture device that works great if it has enough memory, but its vendor has gone out of business and I haven't been able to find either Vista or Windows 7 drivers for it. I've got one old XP machine that only has 768MB RAM on it, and I have unacceptable frame drop on the captures; did not have this on the 2GB machine prior to its toasting itself into oblivion.

But I have two laptops, a Dell Studio 32bit Win 7 system with 3GB, and a Sony Viao 64 bit with 4GB. I don't have any idea how much of a memory hog the virtual machine mode is, and I don't know if either laptop has the HAL built in to it (but it seems this is no longer required for it to run VXP, but it may affect performance.)

So, short of buying a new video capture device... what recommendations do folks have on the pro's and con's of downloading, installing and trying out this XP virtual machine stuff? Is anybody successfully using it and happy with it for IO intensive applications like this?

Thanks!

Hi notonyourtintyp :wave:

And welcome to TechSpot.

If you want your question to get attention so people will notice and read it, you need to re-post and start your own thread.

And create your new topic in the right forum (i.e. in Audio/Video and not here in Mobile Computing) so people with the right background will see it. The only reason i happened to see your post is 'cuz i'm already subscribed to this particular thread - and i'm not a good one to answer questions about video capture cards! )
