Looking to upgrade this laptop to breathe some new life into it. I was told that I could upgrade from the stock Sempron SI-42 to a Turion X2 Ultra Dual-Core ZM-87. I can get this processor for $15.00 currently, but I would like to know that it is indeed compatible before I purchase it. If this processor isn't compatible, is there one that can be recommended? I tried looking for CPU upgrade information in the manuals hosted on Toshiba's website, but there is no CPU upgrade information. It is socketed, though, and I have read on other sources on the internet that the computer can handle dual-core processors without issue.
ANY help or recommendations would be helpful. I am trying to fix up this old laptop for my niece so she can use it for her homework. Thanks in advance!
