    I don't believe the 940GML chipset supports the dual core CPUs. Perhaps you can do a Core Solo CPU, which would get you speedstep. A good SSD would probably be more useful if you can live with the limited space.

    I search info about Mobile Intel 940GML Express Chipset at this page : Mobile Intel® 940GML Express Chipset
    And download its Datasheet ( link download : http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/datasheet/309219.pdf)
    And Info about Processor Support following :

    What is my CPU type in the list above? 1 or 2 that I draw on image.
    I think type of my CPU is : Intel ® Core Duo Mobile Processor which It is not listed in above document.
    So I can upgrade the CPU with this?
    Thanks for commenting :)
