    Hi i have recently brought a Toshiba Equium L20-264 from a friend and it is painfully slow (but also cheap). I have ordered some ram, but I'm having trouble finding a processor, all i seem to be able to find is the same 1.4ghz it already has. Can someone point me in the right direction please?

    Thanks Sam so it's socket 479? And the M390 is this best avalabe for my laptop? Bummer! I was hoping to get somthing at least twice the power it has. :( Would it even be worth the upgrade?

    Not really, it very rarely is with laptops, unfortunately.

    Oh well, my ram should be here tomorrow so hopefully that will speed it up a bit. Thanks for the help.
