Are you sure your 255 G8 has Intel CPU/Processor ? It ONLY has

 

AMD Dual-Core processor:

  • A6-9220 (2.5-GHz, turbo up to 2.9 GHz, 2133-MHz/1-MB L2 cache)          or
  • E2-9000e (1.5-GHz, turbo up to 2.0 GHz, 1866-MHz/1-MB L2 cache

and if you wish to change CPU from E2 to A6 you have to change system board

 

Regards.

Yes, thank you. I'll just have to get a new laptop.
