Data transfer is easy.  You cannot transfer applications. Dimension 5150/E510 HJ054 Motherboard Bios A07 works without any issues with Pentium D up to 945.  The Dell J8885 KF623 RD203 will make you press F1 to continue.  They will halt with unsuported processor with bios earlier than A07. The A07 BIOS also passes the  Vista Upgrade Advisor scan.  So for 7 and 8 and 10 it is recommended. The Pressler vs Smithfield can do LAHF and SAHF as well as CMPExchange16 which means it works fine if you have a 900 series Pentium D.  That means you can run 64 bit windows 7 or 8 or 10 just fine.  Max useable ram will always be 3.25 gigs regardless of cpu or os being 64 bit or not.  This is a chipset limit. The 5150/E510 can do this(with caveats like Bios A07 and the Copper Heatpipe Heatsink Exactly the same as the GX620. Motherboard Version 0HJ054 supports the Pentium D without issues up to 945. E510  from Oct 06. The Pentium D 915 is the universal CPU which works in Tower or even low profile or SFF or USFF when it has the copper performance heatsink.     When you update to the latest bios and use the copper performance heatsink with a pentium D 915 up to 945 you can install 64 bit Win 8.1 or Win 10.  The pentium D and the heatsink are very cheap. You need a specific version of the motherboard however to get past the Press F1 to continue. 3.25 Gigs of ram is the max regardless of the os being 64 bit or 32 bit. With GX620 its 3.5 Gigs. [IMAGE]   [IMAGE] The max ram that you can post with with a GX320 is less than 4 gigs aka 2.5 gigs or 3 gigs.  8.0 works but 64 bit 8.1 and 10 requires PAE,  NX,  SSE2, 64-bit, CMPXCHG16b, PrefetchW,  LAHF/SAHF.  Regardless of the OS the max ram is 3.5 gigs due to chipset limitation and INTEL Graphics. Adding a PCI-E video card does not recover ram. I have seen inexpensive Pentium D's on Ebay and Amazon SL9QQ seems to be the max for a 5150 [IMAGE] [IMAGE] Coreinfo will tell you.
