    I have a Compaq Presario C551NR that I would like to do a few things to!
    The Celeron M Processor clocked at 1.86GHz is nice… but can I do better?
    I have 1GB RAM… I was told I cannot go any higher than that!

    Now what I want to do is maybe swap out the processor form my old Acer TravelMate 230… the computer will not start up anymore and I have taken it apart and sold a few pieces but I have started it up and looked in the BIOS and saw that it has a 2GHz processor that I want to put in my Compaq… is this possible? I don’t know the socket on either one
    Can anyone help?
