yes it does! sorry!

Sorry, i cant get on the website to help you, its not working, so youll have to do it.

Go to support or products or something, find your model in the list of this site:
http://www.advent.co.uk/

locate the mobo info, copy all the motherboard info and paste it here so i can have a look.

the info still isnt detailed enough. I need in depth details about the motherboard or atleast the mobos brand and model.

I still cant get onto the site, i cant do anything now, my isp is messing about.

Hi Donvaux.

It's not going to be as simple as i suspect you think it is.

You'll need to ensure the chassis as is (cooling arrangement for cpu: heatpipes, cooling area) will deal with the heat put out by the new cpu.

You've also got to take into account the power required to run the new cpu; can the chassis provide enough power.

I'd highly recommend chatting to the manufacturer.

CPU upgrades in laptops are not worth the hassle tbh with you. I was thinking of upgrading mine once upon a time.

How much RAM have you got?

If it's low than that would be a much easier and beneficial upgrade.
