    As an entry level, large screen notebook with its main draw being Blu Ray, I don't think you'll find the upgrade options you're seeking.

    If you need a faster, cooler running notebook, you'll need to look at a completely new system.

    Hope I'm wrong, but this is the information I recieved with a quick search.

    Good luck.

    While there isn't another motherboard that I am aware of that would work with that computer you could upgrade the CPU to a Turion II Ultra dual-core mobile M660 which is a 2.7 GHz CPU.
