HP Pavilion DV2000 cpu upgrade?

Hey everyone. I have an HP Pavilion Dv2000. I was wondering if there was a way for me to put some updated hardware into this laptop to help it handle some minor gaming. I tried to run bioshock on this and it was a complete failure...
is there somewhere i can just buy a motherboard that will run in this computer with a better cpu, graphics card, ram,etc?
would it be worth it?
apologies for poor phrasing as I am not completely computer literate. Thank you in advance for any help.

You're better off buying a new computer.

 

CPU, can be done, but only for those who know what they're doing, RAM, easy, but might not give you what you need by JUST adding ram, and graphics card, impossible. Might as well buy a new laptop.

 

Well welcome to notebook review,

Unfotunately you cannot replace the motherboard in your laptop. They are not upgradeable since they are designed to fit into basically onle one chassis.
Here is an image of your motherboard, so you can better understand what I am talking about.

In the lower picture, right below the phone number, there is a large square chip on the motherboard, that is your integrated nvidia 7200 graphics card. Your graphics card is soldered directly to the motherboard and cannot be removed, therefore it is not upgradeable.

The memory and harddrive are easy and cheap upgrades, so that will help speed things up.
Your harddrive uses the sata interface, so you can upgrade to any 9.5mm thick sata notebook harddrive. notebook harddrives utilize the 2.5" interface.
Basically any drive other than the hitachi 5k500 will work and fit.
The memory your system uses is PC5300 clocked at 533Mhz. Your motherboard can access at most 2Gb of memory cause of chipset limitation.

You can upgrade your processor, but that will be pretty expensive to do.

Your laptop utilizes the intel core duo and core 2 duo based processors, so you can upgrade this. However buying a cpu is expensive and will be a difficult upgrade, which requires taking apart the entire laptop

However, these upgrades will not speed up your games, since gaming is based on the graphics card. If you want to game better, than you will need a computer with a dedicated graphics card. I suggest something with an 8600Gt or better.

K-TRON excellent answer, +1 rep!

 

Hehe says "CUP upgrade?"

the GPU is on the other side, next to CPU socket
