For one thing you have to know that the CPU can be replaced at all, as many laptop manufacuters prefer to solder the CPU to the motherboard instead of using the socket approch.



Also there is the matter to finding out what CPU your motherboard and BIOS can support



Then there is actually getting the laptop CPU, as they are not as easly found as desktop CPU (and desktop CPUs in laptop are highly NOT RECOMMEND FOR MANY REASONS)



Finally there is the actually process of opening up your laptop, taking out the various laptop components to reach the CPU, removing the CPU, adding the termial paste, putting the laptop back together.
