Dell Inspiron 1521 / AMD AMD TURION 64 x2 Mobile Technology TL-60 2GHz. CPU Upgrade?
I have a Dell Inspiron 1521 laptop which has a AMD TURION 64 x2 Mobile Technology TL-60 2GHz CPU cpu...now This cpu has been running slower than I like and I have tried alot of things
-first was upgrading the ram to 4gb and now it runs really hot sometimes not to mention slow most of the time
-I tried various OS's...Vista 32/64 bit, XP, Ubuntu, now Windows 7 32 bit which seems to work the best (so far that is )...
Now my question is this:
I wanted to know if it is possible to upgrade the cpu? I am not too familiar with laptop cpus, so would I be able to get any AM2 socket cpu and swap it ? Or is there a special mobile/laptop version? ...please list your advice/regards on this topic.
Thanks in advance for all your help!

IT IS A AMD TURION 64 x2 Mobile Technology TL-60 2GHz CPU....sorry for the confusion....I updated the thread...
