0 Compaq Presario V3000 Windows 8 Drivers and Upgrade

Compaq Presario V3000 originally released with Windows Vista and can be upgraded to Windows 7 without problems. If you plan to upgrade to windows 8, here I will describe in details about the hardware, drivers and certain issues after upgrading to Windows 8.

1. Installing Windows 8 and System Requirements.
2. Overheating Problems.
3. Drivers

Installing Windows 8 and System Requirements.
1. You can choose either to make a fresh installation or if you already have windows 7 installed, you can use Windows 8 upgrade.
2. System Requirements: Windows 8 require at least 1GB of RAM, and base on users experience Compaq Presario V3000 meet the minimum requirement for Windows 8.

Overheating Problem
The heat problem was common among V3000 series, the temperature increase base on the following operating system:
Windows XP < Windows 7 < Windows 8 < Windows Vista

Solution: (You can choose one of this method)
1. Clean your on board fan (you can choose to do it yourself or send it to shop which normally cost you about ~$5, at my place it cost about MYR15 ~ $3).
2. Get an external USB Fan, place it near to the top left side of your keyboard. (This trick work most of the time). This method also prevent auto shut down during Windows Installation.
3. Get a new motherboard (cost around $80-$130)

0 Toshiba Dynabook ss1700my Drivers and Details

First of all, it is hard for me to locate the origin of this model. I already check from Dynabook Japan Website and found it is not listed on the support site. So, I gathered all information I can get ( I got 5-6 users who shared the hardware information) and list out the drivers you will need for this model. Please install according to the order and reboot after each drivers installation if needed.

Here is my suggestion if you are using this model.

Recommended Operating system : Windows XP 32-bit
RAM : Default 1GB, you can upgrade it to 2GB
OS architecture :  Stay away from 64-bit Operating system unless you are a advance user. Use 32-bit operating system if you plan to use other OS such as Windows Vista, 7 or any other Linux distribution. 64-bit OS require at least 4GB of RAM.

Most of the drivers is provided by the Vendor and Lenovo, for certain download such as audio you need to agree with the term and agreement first.
