Re: upgrading the operating system
Remember that if anyting goes wrong during upgrade, you will have a dead system... You would have to replace the mainboard.
Everything i have read from HP says the recommend ONLY upgrading PDC if you are experiencing any problems that would be solved with an upgrade. If you don't have any problems, then they recommend you leave it as is.

Re: upgrading the operating system
It would be good if you have the latest firmware on the box.
Have a look at these threads.

You can download the latest firware from this link

or

We need to care about fixes. There are many bugs with the older version of PDCs like system hangs, no core dumps, clock problems etc.,
However, I would ask HP CE to update PDC for me. Remember, PDC versions are not *unsupported*. So I don't appreciate HP not recommending them.

Re: upgrading the operating system
SRI, I appreciate your help. And I am agree with you to upgrade the Firmware especially for my case because if I keep my system with old version of the firware my O.S couldn't run at 64bit.
