Laptop Processors are very hard to change.
They have to be exactly the right type and model.
Check the Dell web site and see what options there are for yours.
You will also find that Laptop Processors are more expensive than desk top ones.

We are talking about a pentium 3 Dell computer. Well I think that you can upgrade the processor in your computer which is actually very simple to do. Check out this site it will give you all the information you need to do it yourself. http://www.impactcomputers.com/dellparts-dell-laptops-dell-inspiron-1000-parts-internal-parts-and-assemblies.html or you can try http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116035.

depends on how old the computer is, processors change quite rapidly so if it is more than 2 or 3 years old about the only place you could find one would be ebay
