L45-S7423 cpu upgrade and chipset wierdness
#1
I decided to take this thing apart down to the motherboard so I can get an idea what it take to do a cpu swap. pretty easy takeapart next to some other ones i've done

I used MMtools to look at the 1.60 and 2.00 bios and it shows a microcode for the release date of the T7300. I'm guessing anyways. oh well I spent $10/free shipping on ebay for a SLA45

One thing about this top is its listed under toshiba as having a max of 2gb of ram, well I have a 1gb and 2gb stick in it and it works fine. but it is having some trouble with the 2gb stick in alot A, windows won't boot, memtest fails to even try to start.

with the 2gb stick in slot b and 1gb in slot A, it works great, memtest runs fine. what do you guys think?

further research has come up with the GL960 as supporting 2GB and a 533max bus, and a 965G supporting 4gb /w a 667 bus

CPU-Z shows me to have a 965GM graphics but a GL960 chipset

I have 3 gigs, and cpu-z (and bios) show it to be in dual channel, and memtest shows up 3gb without errors

So I learned this is called "L shaped" dual channel. This can only mean that this is the 965 chipset (none of my research pointed to the GL960 being capable of this), which probably means it can take 4gb, but it can only take a 667 fsb chip. The 7300 is an 800fsb chip so I kinda screwed up there

here are the codes reported by mmtool (attachment)    

I think 06fa is the T7300, the 661 is a celeron M

so the chipset can't take an 800fsb processor (can it? I know net burst could never take higher fsb chips and actually operate them-but these are core based chips)

does anyone know how I could insert another chip id into the bios file? even a 667 c2d or higher PDC?

I don't do much bios modding. I already have win7 on the thing and its working fairly well. needs a battery BADLY. What do you think of those generic batteries on ebay. I found some generic extended 5200mah for about the same prices of original toshiba 4400mah's (laptops original is 4000)

tell me what you guys think
