Yes I know ME is the Intel Management Engine. Also the fact they have an upgrade due to vulnerability issues does not seem reaffirming does it. Ok, I also checked for specs for eMachines EL1850 online and it was stated that it has the G41 chipset. So I guess that answers my question, it won't...

The thing is I am also interested in getting how to know what chipsets and BIOS's will work with which CPU. I searched online and found no answer fully covering this. Also the manufacturers seems to not state this in their documentation. So how would one know? For example I found information...

Well, I would have the same specs in officcial performance as I have now in essence. Also the speed of the CPU's would be more than sufficient for the what the computer will be used for. Regarding the spying mentioned. The mentioned state emplyee at the white house talking about these attacks...

Well, there are attacks to steal from people doing new things. whether that be a start up business in a garage or at larger companies. I mean I once saw a press conference in the White House where USA government people stated there were alot of attacks from other countries on small companies in...

@USAFRet As mentioned the multithread thing is also an issue. And I could read more articles and do links. But again, NSA disables it. Are you saying the state agency of NSA is illogical? @logainofh Yes but that CPU will not work with my computer. And also I can run the latest OS's on my...

I read that NSA / CIA or similar takes away the Intel ME from their devices. I did see some articles stating it could be used as a backdoor or as a way of attacking a computer but did not read them in details. But as I stated I also don' want multithreading and that's pretty well known to be a...

Well, BIOS is American Megatrends, P01-B1, Revision: 8.15. So it ain't eMachines BIOS.

The reason is I want to avoid multi threading and the Intel Management Engine for security reasons. And the specs work great for what I will use the computer for. Also I looked inside the computer and I think the main chipset is: Intel NH82891GB (I/O). Then I looked at intel's webpage and it...

Well, I want to use these CPU's! I did check the Acer webpage for Acer Aspire X1900 but all I could find was a user manual no detailed specifications. Also, eMachines is no longer a company that is active I think. However I did some search on the comuter and I got: Chips: Intel Corporation...

I got an eMachine computer model EL1850, and I want to change the CPU (I think this is the Acer Aspire X1900 motherboard). So I read the main thing is that the sockets have to be compatible and I found some great CPU's I want to use that are the same socket (LGA775). But then I read also the...
