Hi,

The following link shows specs of your computer

It came with FreeDOS. It uses : Intel Core i3-4030U with Intel HD Graphics 4400 (1.9 GHz, 3 MB cache, 2 cores) and motherboard part number is:  774768-001.

Now, if you wish to upgrade to i7 processor, no available motherboard for your machine; only i5 processors and CPU is soldered to the motherboard

This is a very, very, very expensive upgrade and won't give you much.
