Somehow modify a cooler to go on it and so forth. It still works... just the display costs more than it's worth if it does need indeed to be replaced.
I've got 2 dual core systems. 1 is my HTPC with a HD5450 and the other I've got enough parts to build and use an old 7600GT for display.
I'm only seeing a download for Windows... is that the only option or am I missing something? Because if I want to get it to work on my 1055T, don't I need to get it to run in a VM in order to use only 4 of the cores?

Thank you guys.

No, you don't. All you have is properly configure the settings once installed to use only 4 of the 6 cores. I'm not sure how much you need though, but someone may know, you're not the only one riding a Ph II x6
