I do not recommend upgrading CPUs, as it can cause overheating problems on your laptop, especially a small one.

Do you already have an ssd installed? If you want your laptop to be faster it could be a great solution to improve performance. Just select an ssd, migrate your data onto it and replace your hard drive. This may even cool it down as there will be less moving parts. Of course, it's not the same as upgrading your cpu but as Nuclear101 said you may having heating issues and that may not be worth it as laptops run very hot to begin with.

Unless you bought this second hand you would know. That's not a gaming laptop; I have the same laptop. So it's unlikely. If you research this just even a little you will find that upgrading your laptop to an SSD is the #1 most effective way to improve performance. Again, it won't be the same as upgrading your cpu but will not cause overheating problems like that would and in fact will lower you overall temps if you upgrade to SSD.
