Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

c02770249.pdf

Chapter 1 has the list of supported processors and memory upgrade information.

Chapter 3 has the list of parts.

Your notebook has an Intel HM 55 Express Chipset which means you can only install a supported Intel 1st generation core processor.

Looks like the best you can do according to the manual is the Intel Core i5-480M processor.

Thanks, can you tell me where I can to buy te maximum memory that I suppose is onlye one additional 4GB memory module like the one that comes to expand to 8GB with the 2 memory banks?

The pdf only tell 2 customer-accessible/upgradable SODIMM slots:

● DDR3-1333 MHz Dual Channel

● DDR3-1066 MHz Dual Channel Support (DDR3-1333 downgraded to DDR3-1066)

Supports up to 8 GB of system memory in the following configurations

● 6144 MB (4096 MB × 1 +2048×1)

● 4096 MB (4096 MB × 1)
● 4096 MB (2048 MB × 2)
● 3072 MB (1024 MB × 1 + 2048 MB × 1)

● 2048 MB (2048 MB × 1)

● 2048 MB (1024 MB × 2)

You're very welcome.

You need to purchase a DDR3-1333 MHz 2Rx8 memory chip.

That is one with 8 little black memory chips on each side of the circuit board.

Do not buy DDR3L-1600 memory or it will not work.

This should be a compatible 4 GB memory chip for your notebook:

Hi I I bought these memories and they are working well.

Thanks

[Paul_Tikkanen]

Anytime. 

Glad to have been of assistance.

Are you sure the max proccesor is only Intel Core i5-480M?

In this page for Intel HM 55 Express Chipset I can see a lot of higher proccessors, as Ii7-640M , i7-840QM, i7-660LM ,  i7-940XM and others

How can I know wich proccesors are avlid and wich not? In the page say is for intel-hm55-express chipset, does not specify the generation.

Thanks in advance.

I can only go by what the service manual indicates.

Theoretically, the i7-640M should work but I'm skeptical about the other processors you listed being able to work.

The i7-840QM is a 45W processor and the dual cores are 35W processors.

[Jjaviercs]

The issue is voltage? Then these at 18 W would be more likely to work:

The issue may be wattage, not voltage. 

Your PCs motherboard supports the Intel 1st Gen dual core 35 Watt processors 

The quad core processors are 45 Watt processors.
