Changing a CPU on a laptop

[baldzone]

Never done this before. The missus went out and bought a crappy Pentium dual core lappy (sooooo slooooww!) and I'm wondering if it's possible to fit a C2D into it? Not having played with laptops before I'm a little concerned about opening it up and also heat dissipation issues.

The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite L40-18Z

Any advice greatly appreciated

Thought as much.

She'll have to lump it or use my desktop.

Cheers guys

It's only got 1 Gb iirc. Could try and persuade her to upgrade it.

She got the laptop 'cos she wanted Vista. XP is a no go unfortunately.
