    Laptop CPU's cannot be swapped.
    Desktop CPU's can.
    I know this is very vague, but I hope it somewhat helps.

    I think that ddp may remember some of your last posts. It wasn't sarcasm, and he is right.

    & I have been crippled all my life & the past few years I've been slowly loosing the mobility in my legs to the point I have to lay my bike on it's side just so I can lift my leg over the frame before lifting the bike upright so I can ride it. I don't complain about it as nothing can be done about it. if you are using win7 & maybe above then use the windows magnifier program so you can see where you are posting into as a customer uses that program because his blindness.
