T61 and T400 CPU swap?

[muscleflex]

is it possible to swap the cpus?
the T61 has a 1.8Ghz T7100 processor and the T400 has a p8600 processor

is it possible to swap the two processors around?

or if i have a slower core 2 laptop, can i swap the processor to a faster core 2 processor?

Could have said that with a bit more decorum, I think...

Thread has been moved from X6x forum to the General Thinkpad forum, since it branches across 2 generations of T series Thinkpads.

thanks for moving and at least it's an epic. doesn't matter if it's a fail or whatever...

now back to the main topic...does anyone know?

Bus speed 1066, the 800mhz T61 will not support that.

But yeah, it can take faster cpus, it's just that there are T60 Core 2's that won't work, T400 Core 2's that won't work, etc.
