Hi:

 

Your notebook does not support any of the Intel 1st gen core processors.

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

 

The supported processors can be found in chapter 1.

 

ManualsLib - Makes it easy to find manuals online!

 

In order to upgrade the processor in your notebook, you need to know what chipset it has.

 

Notebooks with the Intel GM or PM45 chipset can support any of the processors listed.

 

Notebooks with the Intel GL40 chipset can only support the processors that have a max FSB of 800 MHz.

 

You can use the free utility that I zipped up and attached below to find out what chipset your PC comes with.
