ASUS CM1630-05 upgrade

Last response: in CPUs

Hi, my mom has this ASUS Cm1630-05 with a athlon II X2 220, and lately she has ben complaining that it is getting extremely slow. SO I was wondering if I were to put in a processor like the Phenom X4 975 or a X6 something if that would increase the performance and speed of her system? Also if I replace the processor, would I have to go out and buy another copy of Windows or could I just call in and say a virus wiped my drives or something and just reinstall the original copy? Thanks for anything that you can tell me.

Changing CPU's does not violate her OS license! Before something drastic like that maybe some housekeeping on her HDD is in order like defragmenting deleting temporary files and such is in order!
