Hi, I'm volunteering at a High School and there's some HP d530's in the school. They're 11 years old. I just wanna try to squeeze the life out of them as much as I can. The d530's came with Pentium 4 Northwoods. I wonder if a early Prescott Pentium 4 with XD would work on a d530. I know the faster and newer ones would take up more heat. The school is getting money for new machines but I would like to squeeze the life out of the d530's and use them as student computers because the classrooms doesn't have enough student computers. I hope an early Prescott with XD would work and fit because I would like to run Windows 8. The d530's have the 800mhz front side bus. Helpful Answers would be Appericated. Please don't say Get a New PC.
