I think either we are communicating in the wrong language or you are just messing with me. The answer has been given. Good luck.

See p. 20 of the Service Manual here:

 

Manual 

 

The motherboard only supports Celeron CPUs so there is no worthwhile upgrade you could do without replacing the whole motherboard. If you really want to make a project of it a better motherboard and processor for that model could likely be found for not very much money but the laptop is still just about obsolete at this point.
