@LordofJinn um dude its a simple mistake i looked it up and it turns out the new celeron cpu's had the D at the end of them to let people know that it was not designed for the slot 1 or socket 370 cpu port.
@jr540123 Prescott-256 Celeron D processors launched June 25, 2004.
The Prescott-256 Celeron D was manufactured for Socket 478 and LGA 775, with 3x0 and 3x5 designations from 310 through to 355 at clock speeds of 2.13 GHz to 3.33 GHz.
Then you had the Cedar Mill-512, this Celeron D was launched May 28, 2006,and continued the 3xx naming scheme with the Celeron D 347 (3.06 GHz), 352 (3.2 GHz), 356 (3.33 GHz), 360 (3.46 GHz), and 365 (3.6 GHz). The Cedar Mill Celeron D is largely the same as the Prescott-256, except with double the L2 cache (512 KB) and based on a 65 nm manufacturing process.
I had a similar setup a couple of years ago, and I played Crysys, COD and GTA IV. For some reason, it wouldn't run Farcry 2 without great lagging, but that was fine as I didn't like the game anyways.
With a 512MB AGP card and 2GB of RAM DDR 400 in Dual Channel (that was the maximum that old motherboard would take), it was a perfect machine for any use, including games.
I just had to replace it when it died completely.... It actually was making some black smoke after 6 years of hardcore use.
Hahahaha this is nothing for the pentium 4! I have a 478 pentium 4 3ghz HT 800mhz fsb and 1mb L2, 4gb of DDR 400 mhz kingston ram, Intel D865GLC, and a Ati 3650 512mb. Runs crysis on medium to high settings without a hich and UT3 maxed out! Will also load the internet faster than some of our other computers :) Oh and has a sata Western didgital raptor from 2006.
Myself, I wouldn't do newest games on Win 7 with any P4 system. If you just want to surf the web and email and do Youtube and Facebook, it's probably fine though. Not everyone's a gamer. If it works for you, great.
@CJCA915 OK. I saw that you have a quad now but my comment was more for the Other people out there that are wondering about how the P4 would be with 7. I guess I should have started off with "For all of you out there that..." . Anyway, thanks for doing the video and keeping it up. It is still useful info.
hey my friend who made this vid, try using ubuntu for using all 4 gigs of ram. i had the same limits as you and i tried ubuntu with some simple tweaks from google and i got use of all 4 gigs. this was done on a machine similar to urs. not as universal as windows but still good. cheers mate.
@CJCA915 :( anyway i have a pc win7 and games like mw3 or assassins creed, but i was wondering if i install on my notebook, anyway thx so much for the help :)
Windows 7 32 bit requires at least 1GB to run smoothly... 2GB for the 64 bit version... as for Aero, you need a video card with at least 128MB of RAM... and DirectX 9 I believe...
i have no issues with a pentium 4 at all. i had one and it was great for what it was. i've ran windows 7 on it and it was fine. i upgraded to a pentium d and it was a huge jump. still gaming wasn't great though using the same ddr and ati 2600 pro but much better. i now have an athlon II 450 ddr3 and 5670. going from what i was using to what i have now, i have to say newer is much better.
Actually i am now messing around on a pc with a p4 2ghz with 2gb ram and a onboard radeon express 200... it is not for gaming.. i have a gaming pc but damn.. windows xp fly's on there :D
Dude I'm running Windows 7 on Intel Pentiom 4 3.40 ghz 4GB DDR1 with 1GB ddr3 video card. System rating is very good. I play FSX and FS9 on it works good. :D plays every game I have so far so good :D.
@Flightsimulator241 Well, FSX was less than exceptional... now I have a Q6600 @ 2.4GHz, 4GB DDR2, a nVidia 8800GT 512MB GDDR3 video card... and FSX is still less than spectacular on default settings, at least while recording with Fraps...
Other than that, Crysis runs quite nicely on High and Very High settings.
@kostas19952 In this computer, I had 4GB of DDR2-800 RAM... that's what I have now amount wise, except I'm using another manufacturer, OCZ Platinum RAM, very nice to.
My friend has a prescott Pentium 4 at 3.8GHz (stock....WTF?), he has a 9800gt and only 1GB of DDR RAM. So I lent him my copy of CoD WaW seeing that other people could run this game on similar spec but with a little bit (1GB) more RAM.
He has to turn everything down to lowest, turn off AA and put resolution on 800 x 600 just to get a playable frame rate! He's on Windows XP 32 bit. Surely 1GB of DDR RAM can't be the bottleneck here... Is it?
@RedHaxorz that has nothing to do with the parts other than maybe the power supply. This sounds like a software problem. Does he have the LATEST Nvidia drivers? the latest are 270.61. But yeah, a system like that should fly through that game at max settings. Now COD isnt a ram intense game, but 2gb would make an ENORMOUS impact in games like Crysis and GTA 4.. Does he have the latest patch for the game? Update everything and tell me the power supply he has. Ive seen this problem before :)
I dunno if he has the latest nVidia drivers, I'll ask him that (but he doesn't have access to the Internet, I'll just download them for him and give them to him on a memory stick in case he doesn't) I gave him all the patches for this game, all I know about his power supply is that it's 550W, I know that information doesn't help so I'll go over to his house to give him the drivers and find out his PSU make...
@cobrachoppergirl On the contrary, it plays videos on YouTube just fine, because I watched this video all the way through before I publicized it, to make sure YouTube didn't screw it up, of course now I have a Quad Core, so yea.
@TheConrad10 I'm just saying what the minimum system requirements according to Microsoft are, and they say that it's best to have at least 2GB of RAM for the 64-bit version, and 1GB for the 32-bit version.
its not surprising that he can run win7 on a p4 the system requirements are a 1GHz cpu 20 GB hdd/sdd and a gpu compatible with directx 9 or up with at least 2GB ram
@killyrm34300 "He," you mean, me, lol. I made the video.
Yes, but the Pentium 4 is a single core, with hyper-threading, not to mention, it's been out of production for a few years, I have a Quad Core now, but I made this more or less, to show Mac fanboys that Windows 7 runs well even on low end systems.
@centelles Well, at this time, I wasn't to fond of FSX at all, due to it's poor coding, and high system requirements to really get eye candy from the simulator, heck, even with my current system setup, a Quad Core, etc. I still prefer FS9, because FSX isn't multicore optimized, like they claim, at least mid range wise, you need a good high end dual or quad core @ or above 3GHz.
@CJCA915 in fact thats true what you say, its really a stressing cpu game vs the old good fs9. ok not super performing on fsx (my system) but still ok for the moment altough i would recommend indeed a higher quad or multi core cpu above 3ghz and at least a 512mb card for better performance in fsx. my framerates are between 30-12 depending the scenery and with medium settings like i told.
oh well why drop the old P4 when we still can convert it into an HTPC lollol
Hi there my sisters pc is a Pentium 4 630 like yours aswell as a 2gb ram and a 7300 GT 512mb, I think I should be able to run windows 7 on there ok but do you think I should upgrade the ram to 3-4 gb? Might overclock the CPU too, do you think the stock cooler is ok enough for it and maybe some thermal cooling?
I know I don't really have a great gfx card, not looking to play anything like Crysis, I'm just aiming to have at least Supreme Comander to play fairly well on it, maybe left 4 dead 2 too.
@allwyngidin You'll need to get a dedicated video card, at least Geforce 6 series or higher, and not sure about the ATI equivalent, unless it's a notebook computer.
ill break your heart. Im running pc system from 2002 yr - Intel Pentium 4 - 2.4 ghz - 1 gb of RAM, Mainboard GA-8PMTE4 (just changed video card to (ATI RADEON HD 3650 AGP). and I am running windows 7 with no problems.
Get more RAM memory because Windows 7 will become much larger with the upcoming service packs and your computer will slow down to a crawl. 1GB of RAM memory will get you nowhere pretty soon.
i install windows 7 on my pentum 4 with 2 gb ram... itz very fast but 4 me aero shake is not working and some of the windows 7 features is not working i asked my friend about this he said 2 update driver when i update my driver ...i says that ur video card does not support aero shake...and it aslo says problem with transprant...i note my motherbard no...and check on internet it says ur video is up2date////plz help me ...i am waiting 4 ur replay....my id is allwynf1@gmail.com
I bet you can't get more FPS in games as Farcry/Crysis/BadCompany/CallOfDuty and so on in Windows 7 compare to Windows XP... I mean when using a GRAPHICS CARD that also OLD AS THE COMPUTER without upgrading!, that not have DX10 or DX11!
@1337sweden I played Far Cry 2 on Max settings, of course, at the time, until I got a 9400 GT, I couldn't use DX10 graphics, as I had a 7600GS, but I actually could play Crysis on all High settings with the 9400GT, but a 9400GT was not a gaming card, it's more of a multimedia card.
Well, since XP uses DX9, games made in DX10, if they are DX9 backwards compatible will perform better, since DX9 is less intensive than DX10 and/or DX11, which is still relatively new, not many games are even DX11.
@MrGordonmccormack It should be, unless you're Pentium 4 doesn't have the x64 instruction set, which it should, my Pentium 4 was a Pentium 4 Model 630.
i get this error while installing it "Windows cannot install required files. Network problems may be preventing Windows from accessing the file. Make sure the computer is connected to the network and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070005" Any HELP!!!!
@sekailover Your computer needs to be connected using wired, it has to be Install not Upgrade.
When you started the install it should have asked if you wanted it to download the latest updates prior to installing. If you clicked yes, it may have downloaded something that got corrupted along the way. Try a clean install or if you are doing an upgrade to keep your programs and things, make sure that you don't check that updates box. You can do Windows Update after you install.
@CJCA915 Well , First when i install from the boot , the same error (fresh install) , And even from the OS same error (Well Idk what it do fresh or sumthing)
cool I was wondering if anyone had done this, i use ati hd4650 and run oblivion + over 30 mods and the game is tight. I plan on getting win 7, for another build anyway, plus the xp version I have is only 32 bit.
@ogmix333 If there are Windows 7 stock drivers, they will be installed, if there you are 3rd party drivers, like for video card, sound, etc. you should install them, for all the performance gains, but most of the time Windows Update after install, will install the full drivers.
@Gibson299 yeah at least a dual-core but is working very well with my p4,what i can't do is playing a game while talking with SKYPE cuz it uses me 18% of the pc O_o
@CJCA915 thing with games that uttilize multi cores is they won't do any better on a quad then they will a Dual Lol, especially on same or high speeds
sept for gaming, 3.0ghz+ pentium 4's with hyper threads are fast enuff for anything but most of the games today (newer ones) some titles may still run if u have a dece graphics card
mee to 9550 ! actually the reson i'm watching this video is because i have a cpu which is the same and i'm planning on making ir run fsx on 2900gt ati radeon hd ! and also 8gb ram 1066mhz corsair ! psu 750 watt which is more than enough i think ! fsx will be running tileproxy so wont need all that autogen stuff ! just worl map remake since the fsx world map is old ! also running on ga-ep45-ud3p board !
Ok I just wrote because you sad it's a limitation of the motherboard!:) But it's the limitation of 32-bit OS instead! But it's OK if you already know that!:) Good video!
Your RAM is only 3GB becauce you are running a 32-bit O.S. and that can dedicate only 4GB of system RAM, which includes the memory on your GPU, and because that is 1024GB, you can only see 3 of the 4GB of system RAM, but the O.S can use all the 4GB of the RAM, just don't dedicate the last 1GB!
wow, i didnt know the pentium 4 could do that, my old computer which i havn't used in about a year has a pentium 4 extreme 3.60Ghz and 2GB Ram on a 945 motherboard with a 7800GTX card. i think i should get that pc up and running again, its just gathering dust (i must clean it lol)
Both of mine are custom builds, you can get it up to that, if you watch your temps, you have a good cooler on your CPU, and your MB and stuff can handle it.
Overclocking can be done a number of ways, it's not all the same, depending on your system, but the biggest issue to make sure your motherboard can handle it, and that you have adequate cooling for your computer and CPU.
You can't just overclock it, you must overclock it safely, and how you go about doing it, depends on your system, and you also need adequate cooling, if the CPU has a stock cooler, then overclocking isn't the best option.
for some reason i dont knoe wat to do my menu is differnet then other mine is stack not the other where u have to move with left arrow or right arrow it just up or down
Yes, at certain settings, but I hope to get a better video card, the 9400GT only has 16 streaming processors, which is why Crysis isn't top notch, compared to other's. I plan to get a higher end card, the 8800, while going back in series, it still will perform better than a 9400GT.
Surprisingly I ran Crysis at 12FPS, and it still was playable, now with the Quad it's up a little bit, like 25-31 FPS, but when recording, it's awful, so, like I said, I want to get a higher end card.
I can play Far Cry 2 superbly, now I can play FSX, which on a P4 is impossible, and it look decent.
I also play Star Trek: Legacy, Driver 3, and Need for Speed: Carbon.
Windows 7 + pentium 4 = old news man, mine will happily run windows 7 and Unreal Tournament 3 maxed out :)

I dunno if he has the latest nVidia drivers, I'll ask him that (but he doesn't have access to the Internet, I'll just download them for him and give them to him on a memory stick in case he doesn't) I gave him all the patches for this game, all I know about his power supply is that it's 550W, I know that information doesn't help so I'll go over to his house to give him the drivers and find out his PSU make...

dude it doesnt take 2gb ram to run windows 7 its 512mb
TheConrad10 1 year ago
@TheConrad10 I'm just saying what the minimum system requirements according to Microsoft are, and they say that it's best to have at least 2GB of RAM for the 64-bit version, and 1GB for the 32-bit version.

its not surprising that he can run win7 on a p4 the system requirements are a 1GHz cpu 20 GB hdd/sdd and a gpu compatible with directx 9 or up with at least 2GB ram

@killyrm34300 "He," you mean, me, lol. I made the video.
Yes, but the Pentium 4 is a single core, with hyper-threading, not to mention, it's been out of production for a few years, I have a Quad Core now, but I made this more or less, to show Mac fanboys that Windows 7 runs well even on low end systems.

ha ??? no FSX??????? strange tell me!!
I run a P4 3ghz 2gb ram ati 9800 128mb (medion based pc) and run FSX!!
ok fact is not at all high settings or so but medium > medium low config will do for now, still i run it on this pc setup.
centelles 1 year ago
@centelles Well, at this time, I wasn't to fond of FSX at all, due to it's poor coding, and high system requirements to really get eye candy from the simulator, heck, even with my current system setup, a Quad Core, etc. I still prefer FS9, because FSX isn't multicore optimized, like they claim, at least mid range wise, you need a good high end dual or quad core @ or above 3GHz.
CJCA915 1 year ago
@CJCA915 in fact thats true what you say, its really a stressing cpu game vs the old good fs9. ok not super performing on fsx (my system) but still ok for the moment altough i would recommend indeed a higher quad or multi core cpu above 3ghz and at least a 512mb card for better performance in fsx. my framerates are between 30-12 depending the scenery and with medium settings like i told.
oh well why drop the old P4 when we still can convert it into an HTPC lollol

Hi there my sisters pc is a Pentium 4 630 like yours aswell as a 2gb ram and a 7300 GT 512mb, I think I should be able to run windows 7 on there ok but do you think I should upgrade the ram to 3-4 gb? Might overclock the CPU too, do you think the stock cooler is ok enough for it and maybe some thermal cooling?
I know I don't really have a great gfx card, not looking to play anything like Crysis, I'm just aiming to have at least Supreme Comander to play fairly well on it, maybe left 4 dead 2 too.

Get more RAM memory because Windows 7 will become much larger with the upcoming service packs and your computer will slow down to a crawl. 1GB of RAM memory will get you nowhere pretty soon.

CJCA915 1 year ago
I bet you can't get more FPS in games as Farcry/Crysis/BadCompany/CallOfDuty and so on in Windows 7 compare to Windows XP... I mean when using a GRAPHICS CARD that also OLD AS THE COMPUTER without upgrading!, that not have DX10 or DX11!
1337sweden 1 year ago
@1337sweden I played Far Cry 2 on Max settings, of course, at the time, until I got a 9400 GT, I couldn't use DX10 graphics, as I had a 7600GS, but I actually could play Crysis on all High settings with the 9400GT, but a 9400GT was not a gaming card, it's more of a multimedia card.
Well, since XP uses DX9, games made in DX10, if they are DX9 backwards compatible will perform better, since DX9 is less intensive than DX10 and/or DX11, which is still relatively new, not many games are even DX11.

sekailover 1 year ago
@sekailover Your computer needs to be connected using wired, it has to be Install not Upgrade.
When you started the install it should have asked if you wanted it to download the latest updates prior to installing. If you clicked yes, it may have downloaded something that got corrupted along the way. Try a clean install or if you are doing an upgrade to keep your programs and things, make sure that you don't check that updates box. You can do Windows Update after you install.

Your RAM is only 3GB becauce you are running a 32-bit O.S. and that can dedicate only 4GB of system RAM, which includes the memory on your GPU, and because that is 1024GB, you can only see 3 of the 4GB of system RAM, but the O.S can use all the 4GB of the RAM, just don't dedicate the last 1GB!

bacsey2o9 2 years ago
Both of mine are custom builds, you can get it up to that, if you watch your temps, you have a good cooler on your CPU, and your MB and stuff can handle it.
CJCA915 2 years ago
Look up on overclock (dot) net
Overclocking can be done a number of ways, it's not all the same, depending on your system, but the biggest issue to make sure your motherboard can handle it, and that you have adequate cooling for your computer and CPU.
CJCA915 2 years ago
You can't just overclock it, you must overclock it safely, and how you go about doing it, depends on your system, and you also need adequate cooling, if the CPU has a stock cooler, then overclocking isn't the best option.

you said you can run crysis flawlessly?how many FPS?weve got the same specs..but i have the 9500GT 1GB DDR2. what other games can you run?
teamcaution10 2 years ago
Yes, at certain settings, but I hope to get a better video card, the 9400GT only has 16 streaming processors, which is why Crysis isn't top notch, compared to other's. I plan to get a higher end card, the 8800, while going back in series, it still will perform better than a 9400GT.
CJCA915 2 years ago
Surprisingly I ran Crysis at 12FPS, and it still was playable, now with the Quad it's up a little bit, like 25-31 FPS, but when recording, it's awful, so, like I said, I want to get a higher end card.
I can play Far Cry 2 superbly, now I can play FSX, which on a P4 is impossible, and it look decent.
I also play Star Trek: Legacy, Driver 3, and Need for Speed: Carbon.
