I'd like to upgrade the processor/on board graphics for my Toshiba Satellite C55-A5300. It currently has a Celeron 1037U (1.8Ghz). I'd like to upgrade at least to a 1020M (2.1Ghz), but I'm not sure if my system can be upgraded at all, and if it will take the 1020M. It has an NM70 chipset, but I'm not sure if that;s NM70-I or I2.

Also, is there a service (say, Microcenter?) that will do the upgrade for me? I haven't played around with the guts of a laptop before, and I'd rather shell out some cash to make sure it's done properly.

Have you received an answer to this question, or solved the problem? I'm wondering the same thing.
