    hi,

    is it possible to do a cpu-upgrade on my t42 with 1,7ghz dothan?
    2,0ghz or 2,1ghz cpus should work - or not?

    Yes, I know you can upgrade to the 2.0 but i'm not sure about the 2.1, it requires more voltage.

    * Inspiron 8600c * 1.8ghz Pentium M * 128 MB Radeon 9600 Pro Turbo * 2x512 MB DDR2700 SDRAM * 60GB 7200RPM HDD *
