I too upgrade the CPU of my T61p to a T7800. But as far as I know, the T61p is equipped with PM965 chipset. And the T7400 is designed for the PM945 chipset. Asides from the comment above, my upgrade went quite well. I immedicately...

I have a Precision M2300 which also has a Mini PCI-E slot under the keyboard. The 4GB Turbo Memory module works just fine. The driver will automatically activate the Dashboard during driver installation.

D630 and D630c use different TPM module too. As for D631, I do not think it exists. Dell probably cancel the project at last minute but still have the drivers uploaded to their web site.

Most of the C2D would be supported by D630. But considering you are upgrading for better performance, I would suggest the following as candidates: T7500 / T7700 T8300 / T9300 / T9500

Merom & Penryn 1st generation are all supported by D630, just make sure you update to the latest A13 BIOS. Merom: T7100/T7300/T7500/T7700/T7800/X7800/X7900 (last 2 would be very hot) Penryn: T8100/T8300/T9300/T9500/X9000

Mine is working perfectly in Precision M2300, using driver from Intel and Vista build-in connection manager.

The IT guy in my company told me that they see both Hitachi 7K200 100G & Seagate 7200.2 100G.

A few suggestions: 1. CPU: T8300 is a better choice for the price 2. LCD screen: If you use Excel or office applications, you probably would apprecicate the WXGA+ (1440x900) 3. IMO, the FingerPrint reader is kind of useless 4. Maybe...

You may want to give Atheros 5008x a try. It is an ABGN wireless card too. However the utility has the option to control the power uses for tranmitting the RF signals. From my experience, it help to lower the temperature, also improve...

And the 2nd step would be upgrading to a 7200rpm HD. It would help the overall performance of the laptop. Then I would say the 3rd step is upgrading the CPU. If the budget is not an issue, go with the 2.2GHz. You would really...
