Product: HP dc5700
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I have an hp dc5700 computer with intel core 2 duo e6600 processor and I would like to exchange it for some quad-core, but I do not know how the motherboard will support it. Please help.

Here is the manual for that model.  http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c00794296

On page two is a list of supported CPU's.

 

This PC is rather old.  Check out this thread concerning a simialr discussion
