    Pentium 3 processor
    I just bought a laptop and I want to know update the pentium 3 processor to a faster one. It now has the Pentium 3 -M featuring Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology at 1.33GHz - 512KB Level 2 Cache integrated on die - 133MHz. But I was wondering what it would take to put a new processor in?

    First, you would be restricted to another PIII because the sockets are different. However, most laptops are not upgradeable for CPUs since the mobos are usually properietary. Your best bet is contacted the manufacturer and askign them.
