short answer. no. long answer: while the mothreboard MAY support an upgrade to a 3 or 2 gen i3 based on the FCPGA988 socket the laptop cpus are not designed to be ugprade-able like the desktop ones. the cooling solution MIGHT not handle the new cpu, and on top of that laptop motherboards have...

whichever you can easily add 4gb of ram to. and whichever you can easily replace the harddrive on. you're gonna want a ssd drive instead of whatever they come with. and you'll want 8gb ram instead of 4.

this is a laptop i think, rihgt? if so... monitor temperatures (in radeon settings for example) and if it heats up you could get an external fan that might help (a bit...) other ideas could be to get a bit faster ram which apu-s always benefit from, but ram compatibility in laptops is always...

yep, you can have raid 1 and raid 0 at the same time, it's called raid 10 (or 01 - for 4 drives it's the same - difference comes in at 6, 8 etc where you need to decide if you split the total capacity or add extra reddundancy). you need 4 drives of the same capacity, you end up with half of the...

sata is the same sata so it will function. you might want server grade hdds if for their reliability instead.

try running the laptop with the power cable connected, sometimes the laptop will disable the discreet card when running on battery

open up gpu-z it will show you which it's running on. check in your bios settings, sometimes the discreet card is turned off in bios. if it's not running on the geforce you should clean install the latest drivers.

any new hardware can run 64bits windows. the greatest limitation on the old 32bits version is the 4gb ram limit.

ow i forgot, if the "factory image" - seeing the phone isn't a particularly trusty brand - has already the bad app (not downloaded from places) the reset won't help. you might have to do a hard install of a clean image instead

depends. you're not wrong, but the reset might not be quite enough. think cloud backup. if you factory reset and that's all, you're guaranteed that there's no virus at that time. but if it's in the personal files and uploaded to the account backup on the cloud either ios or google, etc, it will...

ok, open up msconfig (start run msconfig) go to the services section, hide all micrsoft and disable any that sound fishy. restart, run again malware bytes and let it clean it again. also go to task manager, and find any start up programs that may re-add the miner. you can cleanup a bit better...

safest is to just backup any important data and reinstall windows/reformat the os drive

the 860 is out of stock, so the choice is pretty much made for you already

you need a jack to rca (and use the standard stereo output instead of s/pdif), that should work. coax is digital sound, i'm surprised you hear anything at all. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Insten-Insten-Optical-Coaxial-Toslink-Digital-to-Analog-Audio-Converter-Adapter-RCA-L-R-3.5mm/46522445 you...

or if the projector has a audio output and if it forwards the sound from the hdmi ports you could bring a cable back from it to the sound system
