Instructions
Step 1
So, turn on the computer, click on the START tab. A menu appears in front of the user. In it, you need to find the My Computer tab and by clicking on it with the right mouse button, you can see a drop-down menu. At the very bottom line there is a tab - Properties. By clicking on it, select the tab - Equipment. In addition to this tab, there will be, in order from top to bottom: System Restore, Automatic Updates, Deleted Sessions. At the very bottom line, the user will see a line with tabs: General, Computer name, Hardware, Advanced. Of the above, it is necessary, by clicking on the Hardware tab, to find the Device Manager button in the window that opens.
Step 2
In the menu that opens, you can see all the hardware that is installed on the computer. Here you need to find the tab - Processors. It is located between: Ports and Motherboards. By clicking on Processors, the user is provided with information about the "heart" of the computer, or rather about its processor. The name is deciphered in this way: first there is the name of the model, then its type, the last is the frequency. Usually it is indicated in this way, for example: Intel Celeron 540 @ 1, 86GHz.
Step 3
If the computer cannot be turned on, and at the same time it is necessary to find out the frequency of the processor, then there is another way. You will need a screwdriver for this. It is necessary to unscrew the 4 bolts, which are located on the back wall of the system unit, and remove the side cover. In the very middle of the system unit, you can see a fan or, in other words, a cooler. It is usually bolted to the motherboard with four screws. Having unscrewed them, it is necessary to carefully remove the cooler.
Step 4
Under it, closer to the bottom of the system unit, there is a special latch that presses the processor to the motherboard. By clicking on it, a small click occurs and the latch is unfastened. We carefully remove the processor and remove the thermal grease from its surface. After removal, you can see the same inscription that was described above, or corresponding to the type of processor installed in the system unit.
