The entire Compaq organization is unable to provide any information on upgrading an AMD K6-2 400MHz to K6-III+ CPU, and on a scale of 1-10 they score 1 by default.
The following site shows two pages of dipswitch settings for the 1683-1694 laptop range, these vary for K6-2 from 350MHz to 475MHz and 2.0 - 2.2 volts, but again Compaq does not seem to know what any of the dipswitches are for.

My laptop is a Presario 1690 with a K6-2 400MHz 2.2v CPU.
BIOS is Phoenix Trchnologies 4.06
SMBIOS?DMI is version 2.20
Chipset is Acer Labs Inc. (ALI) ALI 1541
Memory is 192MB of PC-100 SDRAM
FSB is 100MHz
AGP bus is 66MHz
PCI bus is 33MHz
Display is 14" TFT
I would appreciate any advice or tips from any Laptop Gurus who take the time to visit the above site.
And yes, now I know I should have purchased a Dell instead.
