because your CPU is connected to your m/b by ball grid array technology (so the reference says) it cannot be upgraded, removed or replaced
see Can upgrade this laptop cpu
see also FAQ on AMD Series 450 EME450GBB22GV
As a new m/b, you might be better off replacing your whole computer
Yes you should be able to upgrade the processor on the laptop for a faster one. The socket type of the processor is socket PPGA47. This code is what you type for when looking for a faster processor. The installed processor should be Intel Pentium T2390 / 1.86 GH.
As for the graphics card then i'm sorry but the graphics chip is part of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded.
You can put in bigger processor, Any AMD Athlon or Sempron will do.
If you are planning to run big games, then I suggest you get
- A new motherboard with PCI Express 2.0 support
- A new processor
- A new graphics card (maybe 512 MB or 1 GB) with DirectX 11 hardware support and Shader Model 5
You may make that DirectX 10 or 10.1 and Shader 4 if you want to reduce cost.
Try to find out from manufacture which processors are supported in different bios versions. You might have to upgrade the bios with your old processor as long as the bios you are upgrading to supports the new processor. This is true even if you have to downgrade bios meaning going to an earlier bios. It might not go into bios after the first reboot with old processor because it might not be supported but your new one is. this is when you do the CPU swap.
"Now what i wonder is: my power supply is 400 watts.
Is this adequate for starting the mobo with the 3 gig processor , or must i go higher?"
400w should work, although if you add an additional video card and multiple drives to that you're getting close.
Try removing all but one memory module, blowing any dust from the motherboard, and double checking the fan is secured properly to the processor. If you are using a separate video card, remove and reseat that too.
Sounds like the processor you're trying to upgrade to isn't the same frequency. The processor, motherboard, and memory have a matched frequency. For example; a motherboard with a frequency of say PC4200 will only accept a processor and memory of a PC4200 frequency. If you try to use PC5300 memory it basically won't do anything, blank screen, or maybe a beep. The same if you tried to use a processor with PC5300 on the PC4200 board. The best way to find the frequency rating is to look on the memory. They class the memory by frequency, but rarely ever list the frequency for the board or processor. Research the new processor to find out the memory class and then see if it matches the memory in your machine. If it doesn't then the processor won't work. If it does, then new processor may not be compatible, and that means more research.
Sorry, the Motherboard is made by Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.
Model: MS-6734
Chipset: VIA KM400
Southbridge: VIA VT8235
LPCIO: Winbond VV83697HF
no upgrading the motherboard will not help. try to change the hard disk , replace it with bigger capacity. check with the service center guy if they can put 2.0 or 2.4ghz processor.
