Laptop HP 1000 AMD A4
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hi, I have a laptop hp 1000-1b09AU with these following specs:

Processor
Amd a4-3330mx apu

System type
64 bit

Ram
2Gb Realtek PCIE Card reader
PCI Bus 8

Harddisk
Toshiba MQ01ABF050 500GB Serial-ATA 3.0Gbps 2.5 inch - 5400 RPM

I'd like to know if I can upgrade the processor to higher than just 2 cores, is it possible to upgrade to 4 cores? If it is possible, what do you suggest of the processor? Hope someone can help me to explain this. Thank you.

No you can't because AMD processors come soldered to the system board and cannot be removed or replaced as mentioned on page 98 of the following manual
