As is normal on a laptop system board, the processor is soldered to the system board. You can only upgrade the processor by changing the system board, which is probably not cost effective. The Service and Maintenance Guide for your system gives the HP part numbers for the system boards. If you are looking for an upgrade, it will probably be more cost effective to sell your existing laptop and buy a new one.

 

I can't think of a single laptop processor that has not been soldered in the past ten years. Soldering keeps the system board lower profile, also it is potentially more robust that a socket for a device that is carried around.
