Sorry, but it appears that you are out of luck regarding upgrading the processor.

 

Here is the Maintenance and Service Manual for your PC and on page 1, it lists the processors the PC will take and the i5 is the fastest it will take:  http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03282135

 

Plus, replacing the processor is very expensive in laptops, as it requires sending the PC to an HP Service Center and paying them a LOT to disassemble the PC, replace the system board, and reassemble the PC.  Can easily cost more than simply replacing the laptop.

 

Good Luck
