I have a laptop which uses a INTEL Core Duo T2300 Processor with Mobile Intel 945GM Chipset.
And I'd like to know if it's possible to change the processor to the Intel Core 2 Duo T7600. without making any other change of the chipset or the mainboard.
Will I get any trouble?

No.
The key word in your question is : "LAPTOP".
Irrelevant of the type of mainboard or chipset most all CPUs in notebook PCs are permanently attached to the board. They cannot be removed or replaced.
Please contact the PC manufacturer's support desk for verification.

big problem with laptops is heat dissapation. they are specifically designed around the processor, memory and video chips in a very carefully arranged manner to better remove heat. if you replace your processor, you may run into problems. an overheating processor can cause your computer to crash and eventually will be physically damaged beyond repair. there is also a very good chance that your chipset's bus speed is different than your new processor's, if it is compatible at all. any laptop chip swap comes highly NOT reccommended, and it is doubtful that it will work at all. big trouble.

In thought, besides the undeniable fact that it truly is totally perplexing to change out processors from a working laptop or pc, particularly in case you haven't any longer have been given adventure with that form of element. i might advise getting a expert hardware expert to do it, besides the undeniable fact that they could fee you lots.

YES, you can, but you will need a firmware upgrade. Contact your computer manufacturer for details on how to get that latest BIOS/Firmware.

No.
The slot would be different, I think, and if the slots aren't compatible then you have to change the mainboard.

yes, that wasn't designed to be a dual processor board, sorry.
