Hi:

 

If you have the latest BIOS installed, the best processor you can upgrade to would be the T9500.

 

Your notebook can only run processors with a max FSB speed of 800 MHz, and the T9900 has a 1066 MHz FSB.

Do you recommend Core 2 Duo E8600 or the another one

 

HP Recommended

Hi:

 

The E8600 is a 1333 MHz desktop processor which wouldn't even fit in your notebook, let alone work.

 

You may as well go for the best one you can...the T9500.
