The M6500 is a very nice older system. First gen Core i7 processor. It was basically sold as a portable engineering workstation. Yours had the USB 3.0 ports which was an additional cost item. Personally, I prefer the ATI FirePro GPU which was also available for this model. Some of the Nvidia cards developed an issue with the performance stepping that would cause a black screen and hard lockup.
This video was posted in 2023, and im saying this because fall release of Windows 11 24H2 will strictly require SSE4.2 and POPCNT nowadays, and that laptop's processor is supported by 24H2 and handles it just fine since its a early 7 era hardware where SSE4.2 were already a norm in most Intel based 7 laptops except for Pentium and Celeron versions of it. Just sayin.

Cool but who cares about Windows 11?
@@FlyboyHelosim Just sayin this because of the laptop's CPU.
It's a shame that you ruin such a really nice laptop with a crappy, bloated and privacy hating OS like Windows.
