Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

So I have a  Pavilion 17-E172nr and it has a AMD Quad-Core A4-5000 APU with Radeon HD 8330 Graphics (1.5 GHz, 2 MB cache) but its integrated and i know that i cant replace the CPU.. I'm asking if I can put a HP Pavilion 17-E Laptop Motherboard 720691-501 DA0R75MB6C1 and put a AMD A10-5750M 2.5 Ghz Quad-Core AM5750DEC44HL socket FS1 CPU Processor on that mother for my laptop... Is this possible?

According to chapter 6 page 85 (processor removal and replacement procedure), the processor is removable and upgradable to the AMD A10-5750M
