I have an Acer Apire 5315 and I think to make an upgrade: change my processor for a Core 2 Duo. Looking for virtual vitrines, I see a computer with this combination. I have to update my BIOS (my processor driver and video board drive are OK)? I can't found an answer on brazilian foruns and I just want to play SSBB.
Excuse me , no offense , but , what 's the question ?
he wants to upgrade to a newer cpu (by getting a newer pc)

I just dont get it , buy a new cpu or a new computer ?
Luis we really need a translation here ^^
well actually, i think he wants to upgrade to a Core 2 Duo cpu and he found that he needs to upgrade his bios or something, and he wants advice on how to upgrade it (i think that's what it is
)
Well , then Yure , you certainly need to go to the Acer forums , I m not sure anyone here will have the answer !!^^(surprise me^^)
Asus has asus update , that you can use to update your Bios directly from Windows , without a floppy , maybe Acer has the same kind of software !
Excuse, people!
I want to change my prcessor, just this. I'm newbie, can I change just the processor?
Or I have to change my CPU too (it will be hard; my computer is a laptop
)
aah, that's what i thought first ^_^
well it depends on if the laptop has the right cpu socket for the cpu that you want
How to? What is "socked"? Ah, DolphinIL crashes when I run SSBB, but in Dolphin Hacked for Intel just happen an error. Advice me: you think I have to overclock my processor?

A socket is like... a socket. Different CPUs have different types of sockets (think of a jigsaw puzzle... and you're on the right track).
With regards to your Core 2 Duo, they are typically 'Socket 775'.
Oh and also, you should upgrade your graphics card as well, or your PC won't run Dolphin properly. Or wait until the developers have released a better version of Dolphin which is less buggy.
