D500 CPU upgrade

Hi guys first time posting i have read a few thing on here about performing this upgrade but i need some insight.

Specs:

Latitude D500
CPU: Intel Pentium M 1.3Ghz
BIOS: A10
Chipset: Intel 855

Im looking to go as fast as possible but i am unsure is the processors i want are supported on my system?

I know i can get away with the pentium M 745 1.8 dothan no problem. But i want to go for either a Pentium M 755 or 765 2.0/2.1 GHz Dothan both 400mhz Fsb 479 socket type.

Anyone with experience with these working or know if they will work/ my bios supports them?

Thanks again

 

Looks like the 755/765 are 400 FSB so theoretically they should work. Make sure you update to the latest BIOS. Also more "MHz" generally doesn't make a difference unless you are doing CPU intensive tasks.

 

Looks like i have version A10 which is most current for BIOS, also for an older computer i have a fresh install of Vista home basic on an 80 GB 5400rpm HD and the computer performs surprisingly good. I just want to max the speed since CPU's are so cheap i can get a 1.8 for $20 bucks so why not maximize performance in this old beast lol, plus id like to maybe do some mobile Audio recording so faster CPU would be better

Thanks for the reply
