Hello, I need some help to rebuild a shitty laptop. I need a new ram and processor, well that's what I think so far. What else could I get? The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite M100. It's horrible, please help.

with laptop's you are only able to upgrade the ram and hard drive. the CPU and GPU are soldered onto the main board so it is not possible to upgrade those parts

I've repaired plenty of laptops and the only ones that had the CPU soldered on are either atom CPUs or Macs. However, it's impractical to upgrade a laptop CPU. I'd advise against it.

I do not, I wish I did. Yeah my friend and I figured it all out, we've managed to find new RAM, Processor and HDD. Thanks for your help anyways!

Finding a mobile C2D and installing it would be a complete waste of time, it's not guaranteed to work! ;P
