United States	2007-07-22 13:17:05

Hey everyone, I have a Sony Vaio VGN-FS640/W with a fried processor, a Intel P M 1.6 and I was just thinking is this something I could myself.. I'm not a laptop tech. but I've taken laptops apart & put back together again no problem, but I never mess with the Motherboard before so my question is, is it real hard to do replace a Processor??? please any help would be great Help or Advice __._,_.___ Messages in this topic (1) Reply (via web post) \| Start a new topic . __,_._,___

Depends on how the heatsink is setup - some are quick and easy and some have a dozen screws and some clips. Pentium M is removable AFAIK but each machine holds the CPU differently. Either wing it since you've done some or search for a manual or at least that section. -----Original Message----- From: Laptop_Repairyahoogroups.com [mailto:Laptop_Repairyahoogroups.com]On Behalf Of Junior Santos Sent: Sunday, July 22, 2007 1:17 PM To: Laptop_Repairyahoogroups.com Subject: [Laptop_Repair] Is it easy to replace a Processor???

You need to remove all the bottom screws, then remove the keyboard, then remove a few screws under the keyboard. Then flip the laptop upside down and remove the base, then will expose the CPU cooling system and the CPU.
