Upgrade from Pentium 133

[lyonlee]

I have an old IBM notebook computer Thinkpad 560. I has a P133 cpu in it. Does anyone know if I can upgrade it by replacing the p133 cpu with something faster? If so, what cpu's I can use.

In all likelihood, you will not be able to upgrade this computer. Contacting IBM is your next step, but don't hope for too much.

Check out my rig:

You could probably go to a P-200MMX, but that's about it.

Most IBM's used CPU modules, but IBM won't say if it's a standard part or not. So I suggest you look at <A HREF="http://www6.tomshardware.com/cpu/00q4/001107/mobilecpu-07.html" target="_new">http://www6.tomshardware.com/cpu/00q4/001107/mobilecpu-07.html</A> to see if it's a Mobile Module 1 package, you can find replacement CPU's in this package for both Pentiume and Pentium II types at Pricewatch.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?
