I have a gateway solo 9300 with a p3 600mhz and I was wondering if there was any way to change the cup to like a p3 1.0ghz processor

its probably better just to change the laptop than try to upgrade it. they dont make p3s anymore

does gateway site give you a board layout as there might be switches on the board to change cpu speed?

laptops if like desktops than switches can be anywhere. also possible the board will auto sense the speed of new cpu but not certain.
