Currently this laptop uses a T2370. Can I replace it with a faster one? Can I only utilize a 533FSB Socket P?
 
Welcome to Tom's Hardware Forums,
It appears that Gateway has only the one processor available for that model. Although there are a multitude of Socket P PPGA748 CPU's (yes a replacement would need to be Socket P) available - the BIOS is locked which would prevent another CPU from being used properly (if it can work at all). A modded BIOS may be found which would allow a different CPU to be used but that would entail some research
