- Video showing upgrade of a Dell Inspiron 1525 (Please remove your battery, I forgot..)
Switching the RAM from 2 to 4GB (200-pin SODIMM), The Laptop only recognizes 3.46GB as its 32bit, but that's still a decent increase.
And the 1.73Ghz Dual Core Processor to a 2.0Ghz (which I upgraded for the Intel® Virtualization not the slight speed increase). The Processors are Socket P. Compatible Processor are Intel Celeron 540, 550 or 560, Intel Pentium Dual-Core T2370, T2390, T2330 or T4200, or Intel Core 2 Duo T5250, T5450, T5550, T5750, T7250, T8100 or T8300.
I'm getting a lot of comments and messages from people asking for advice on upgrading their (non Dell 1525) Laptops. Unfortunatly I cannot answer specific questions not related to the 1525 as thats all I own.
BUT, here is a message I sent to someone with an example of the process I used to determine what I could upgrade too.
"You'll have to do some research to see what processors the physical connection (called a socket) is compatible with, then you'll have to check and see what the software (BIOS/Motherboard) is compatible with.
The easiest way is to just google and see what other people have done.
I googled "dell M5010" upgrade and found this thread -
forum.notebookr...
Someone states there that it is compatible with all Turion X2 TL series processors and recommends a TL-60, TL-64 or TL-68 processor.
Before buying a new processor you'll want to see what you have. I use CPU-Z to find this, you can download it here -
www.cpuid.com/s...
That will give you all the information on whats currently in your Laptop if you didnt know.
Then google the three processors that the thread suggested to see how fast they are - (I search AMD TL-64)
products.amd.co...
The TL-60 is Dual Core 2Ghz
TL-64 is Dual Core 2.2GHz
and the TL-68 is 2.4GHz
Bear in mind that processor speed isnt the only variable which makes for a better processors, a higher L2 Cache is also better, but I checked on the AMD page and they have all 1MB so that doesnt matter in this case.
Then go to eBay and search for the TL-60, 64 and 68 etc and see how much they cost and pick one in your budget, weighing up how much of an improvement it is over what you have.
I found the TL-60's around $5, the TL-62's at around $15 and the TL-68 starting at $65 and going to well over $100.
If it were me I'd likely get the TL-62 - assuming its faster than what came in your M5010 it gives the best bang for your buck.
You might also want to check into buying more RAM, CPU-Z will also tell you how much you have and in how many slots. You can follow similar steps as I outlined above to see how much ram you can put in there and what types you need."

I thought I would tell you a bit about my experiences of upgrading my Dell Inspiron 1525 Laptop. I Have been using this since 2007 and have been very happy with it. It originally run Windows Vista but now Windows 10 Pro version 2004.
A popular upgrade for any laptop is to fit a solid state hard disk. A lot of the slowness of any computer seems to be caused by disk access. This computer has a 160Gb hard disk which is getting pretty full, for this machine I decided on a Crucial BX500 240GB SSD.
So before fitting the SSD I decided to max out RAM. There are two "slots" in this Laptop and they were both occupied with 1Gb modules. The largest size you can fit to the Inspiron 1525 is 2Gb which gives a total of 4Gb. Again I went for Crucial DDR2 RAM.
I then installed the latest Windows 10 pro and Office 2019. The machine is still running well after 14 years.
Anyone else done the same or different components. Has anyone got the 6GB ram working?
@@gazroscoe Yeah I've been reading people using 6 or 8 GB RAM. Though no visual proof. 😑
@@davidbolha This Chipset is designed to run only with 4GB RAM. RAM upgrade not possible above 4GB
That’s good but a CPU upgrade would also work wonders.
I upgraded my Dell Inspiron1525 last year (2016). This laptop has Core 2 Duo T5450 1.66 GHz processor, 2x1GB DDR2 667MHz RAM and 160GB Hitachi SATA Hard Disk. First I wanted to upgrade the Processor only for speed increase. But after searching, I found that many of them advised that there won't be any speed increase. I dropped the idea of upgrading the processor but instead upgraded from 2GB (1x1)to (2x2) 4 GB DDR2 667MHs and replaced the Hitachi 160GB SATA Hard Disk to Kingston 120GB SSD. I used CloneZilla to clone the installed Windows 10 Professional 64 bit from the Hitachi Disk to the SSD and replaced the SSD as main drive. Again I bought Hard Disk Caddy and removed the DVD drive and fitted the Hitachi 160GB on the Caddy and installed it as 2nd Drive. Now my Dell Inspiron1525 running with the boosted performance of SSD and 4GB of RAM.
I would like to do the same thing, almost everything, excepting the clonning of the old hard disk. I`m forced by any components of the laptop to do the same thing like you? Please, a bit of help.. I have the same Dell Inspiron 1525, Intel core2 Duo, T7250@ 2.00 Ghz 778 mhz 1.99 GB of RAM ... I`m not into IT thing, i barely change a RAM memory, so..be gentle.:) I was running on windows 7 32 bits but it was to "heavy" for my Dell. Now, i`m running Windows xp but..i would like something else. Any advice and help would be much apreciated. Thanks!
@@dignitas1980 It seems that you have nothing to clone from the outdated Windows XP installation. Back up all your important photos, videos and files on your external hard drive or USB flash drive. Dell Inspiron 1525 is usually sold with Two 1x1 GB DDR2 RAM. If you want to speed up your laptop, you have to buy two (2x2 = 4GB) DDR2 778 MHz or 667 MHz RAM and a Kingston or any other branded 128 or 256 or 500 GB SSD. You grow your confidence level by repeatedly seeing and understanding the steps shown in the demo videos on TH-cam regarding the replacement of RAMs and SSD. Note down important points and steps in a notebook. It's very easy replacing the 2 RAMs and SSD drive. And then you have to buy Windows 10 Pro 32 bit DVD and install Windows as usual or download windows 10 Pro 32 bit iso from Microsoft website on another computer, write it on a DVD or Flash drive and install and get the product key from any source to make it permanent. Installing the Internet Security software etc are as usual. You can install the SATA Hard disk by fitting on a hard disk caddy as additional drive by removing the CD/DVD dive and replacing it..
Pl refer this link -th-cam.com/video/ZzaIa5oRPPE/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for your very fast answer! I`ll do what you just told me in the next 2 weeks. For the moment, i`m working at the upper cover of the laptop because is broken..yup, i know, again with the DELL bad hinges. :) But i really apreciate your words, makes me confident. I will keep you post with my results. Once again, thank you!

@Mckenwel Kittikul the processor is wrong
@@CarlosLopez-jm7eg T9300 then ?
I own a Acer Extensa 5620z ( Intel Pentium T2390 1.86Ghz ), upgraded to an Intel Core 2 Duo T7800 2.6Ghz for just 15€ on ebay and also replaced the Hard drive for a 120GB SSD, i definitely recommend the upgrade.
These old laptops are in a class of its own. Thanks
thanks good video, I think im going to upgrade my ancient dell 1525 from 2007. I found a cpu on ebay for only $5.99 aud
Its called Thermal Compound and its very important as it allows the heat to conduct from the processor to the cooler. Without it the processor would overheat and likely fail pretty quickly.
This video was supposed to have annotations explaining this but for some reason they are not there anymore, sorry about that.
Trust me it’s not needed as much as you think it is.
For those of you want to upgrade the ram and the CPU of this laptop to the max, here are some info about it:
Possible highest CPU upgrade:
Limiting Factor: 800 MHz FSB
Intel® Core™2 Extreme Processor X9000
Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T9500
RAM Upgrade Limit: 4 - 6GB, This is due to the chipset not supporting higher than 6
Hey bro is there a limit for all laptops because I was thinking of upgrading to Intel i3
Yeah, unless you've got the tools to cram it in.
How much will spend money ? Im a filipino citizen
On the processors it would be better to go with the T9500 as the X9000's heat output is not accommodating to the design of the 1525, even with thermal paste I doubt any aftermarket cooling solutions can be used/exist for the 1525 and given that these processors are 10 years old I doubt anyone is using these laptops for anything other than office suite applications, programming or web browsing so real life performance impact would be marginal. T9500 CPUs are also far cheaper (50-60% less) to purchase online.
how to upgrade graphics card on dell inspiron 1525
Check forums/use google (search for your laptops model number and the model number of the processor you plan on using).
Contacting the manufacturer can be as simple as checking their website, going to the support page and finding your laptop in the list of products. They likely list the components it is compatible with.
Great explanations, and thanks for editing! So glad I didn't have to sit through the unscrewing every screw.
ya mon
Wow that's nice that your CPU is so accessible haha...I have to take EVERYTHING apart in my HP Pavilion Dv6t
For those of you who are interested to go 4GB for RAM and beyond: in order to use the full memory capacity switch to Linux and more precisely to a kernel with PAE (physical address extension; 2.3.23 and above) support thus making it possible for a 32bit OS to work with the whole thing. Currently PAE is always turned on in modern Linux distributions. Dell has also a decent Linux support (unlike Sony or Toshiba) so driver issues might not be that many as you think.
You know the Inspiron 1525 can run a 64bit OS right?
Upgraded processor1.73ghz to 2.5ghz,very easy,thanks alot for the video
Its heatsink compound. You can get it at most computer stores, its necessary to transfer the heat created by the processor to the heatsink so it wont overheat and get destroyed.
Laptop and Desktop processors have different connections. They can be in the same series (such as core2duo etc), but they are physically different.
It's a good video but you literally make an asmr but I love it!
It's thermal paste to conduct heat across the gap between heat sink and processor so it cools effectively. Most stores that sell computer components will sell it.
I apparently applied it incorrectly, you just need a tiny rice sized dab in middle and then when you press the heat sink on top that spreads it out.
There's a new bios update on the Dell website dated 2009. I got that and run windows 8.1 64bit. replaced one of the 2Gig RAM modules with a 4Gig and it now recognises 6Gig.
Replaced the cmos battery (hard to locate, found a vid), replaced the WiFi card with a newer, faster one, replaced the CD drive with a DVD burner and got a new, much higher capacity battery and a new PSU.
Next is an SSD, and a CPU upgrade (currently running T7250 @ 2.0GHz), another 4Gig RAM module and I think it'll be maxxed. It'll never be a 'good' laptop, but it will be good enough for movies, streaming and emulation.
I have enjoyed fooling around with it. So far it's cost me a grand total of AU$67.
So you're saying it can support 8 GB DDR2 RAM ? 🤔😲
Which type do you use - 667 or 800 MHz ?
T7250=> core 2 duo T9300, core 2 duo T9500

@@vladimirazirov1815 ..
Can you tell me how to figure out which chipset my 1525 has?
You cannot install i5 or i7 in the 1525, Intel T8300 is the highest spec processor you can use.
Different processors have different sizes and they need to match, also even if they physically match you have to make sure your motherboard will support the new processor.
Generally your support page for your laptop will indicate the compatible processors and failing that online forums should be able to help. In this video I just googled "Dell 1525 processor upgrade" and that's how I made my choice.
Sorry, your right. I was thinking of a different laptop. I believe that is the Intel GMA X3100
That processor had a thermal pad - which was still on the underside of the heat sink when it was removed. The pad was un-damaged so I did not replace it as I did not handle or touch it at all.
Just whats shown in the video - Just make sure you clean off the old and put new heatsink compound (the white paste) on the processor.
It will be detected by the BIOS on boot and be all set.
Instead of asking you can just visit the page on Acer's website that has the tech data for you notebook and see what kind of things its motherboard supports - type of socket, amount of RAM etc. After that just google on the internet the name of the socket and you will get a list of CPUs that are supported by it. ;)
You can google your laptops information and add "upgrade processor" to the end to find out if there are any forums posts discussing your Laptops and they will likely also state which processor you can use.
Also check the Toshiba site and go to technical support as they may have that information there.
Great video! I'm looking to upgrade my ASUS X58L (AP020A with GM965 chipset) to a Core 2 Duo T9500 from a Celeron M 575. This will be my first CPU upgrade and this video was pretty clear on what to do. :)
Was your upgrade successful
You can, but as I said it isn't worth it. The old paste can dry out so it wont fill in the space as well and new paste is likely better than what was on there originally from the manufacturer.
It's inexpensive, you can get the stuff from nearly any store that sells computers or on eBay.
No, everything saved and installed on your computer stays. Those files are stored on the Hard Drive (abbreviated as HD, HDD or SSD), which is not replaced in this video.
I think I just used a case opener (for opening up electronics like a cellphone). You can use any flexible peice of plastic such as a section of a credit card etc.
I'd double check and make sure everything is seated properly and no other cables or components got disconnected or loosened while the covers were off.
If that doesnt work - try putting the old components back in, if that works you may have defective or non compatible upgrade parts.
This was super helpful. My wife's old pink Dell is now my DAW (music recording) PC, with a T9500 and 4 gb of ram. :)
Supposedly 6 GB is supported... 🤔😕😑
@@davidbolha LOL yeah I found that out after I put in 4. Gotta rebuy at some point.
@@davidbolhawhat? I can put in 6gigs in it? Is that if I replace the processor in it?
@@oldradiosnphonographs Use CPU-Z program & see what chipset you have. That determines the type & amount of RAM. 😉
But yeah maximising RAM should go along with changing the CPU.
@@davidbolha sounds good. I ordered a T9300 CPU for mine. I admit I never swapped CPUs before but the way this looks it seems pretty simple. I am already putting 4GB ram in it. Only a 120gb SSD because I'm not gonna spend a big amount of money on parts for a 15 year old computer to begin with.
Liking the vid.
Look up your laptop, find what type of chip socket type it uses (CPU-Z will further inform you), buy the highest spec'ed version you can (especially if it's a pain in the **** to change), and try to get a cache upgraded version if possible. I say this as I changed my CPU yesterday on my dell Vostro 1720 and found the processor drivers to be the same for Intel P8600 and the T9900 although I had to uninstall the original drivers then reinstall fresh drivers them to have the correct chipset appear in device manager. If anything the PC runs cooler (60-65c max) but that may be also due to cleaning out the fan etc while changing the chip and the chip possibly having a better cooling algorithm, stepping regime etc. The T9900 was not a specified chip for my laptop originally but I threw caution to the wind.
p.s I believe the CPU chip controls the fan to a certain extent so don't worry too much about Bios etc, most companies have a site where you can get the last/latest bios anyway.
They are generally soldered on, even if you could remove and replace with something its unlikely the BIOS will be compatible with anything else.
It's good to go, the BIOS will detect the extra memory the first time it boots after the upgrade and do what it needs to do. You don't need to do anything (I'd check in the system settings to make sure if I put 2GB in, that I have 2GB showing up and not just 1GB just to be sure)
I have this same laptop...It really is a 64 bits system you have to update and activate it in the BIOS, most recent version if I remember well it was in 2009 the last update they made for the system. In the BIOS setup you have to activate 64 bit capability. Then it can use all of the 4 gigs of ram plus 64 bits is more efficient and has more compatibility with current software.
Don't mind you dont talk. Actually I enjoy watching your work without langauge interrupting. Although I think a little less thermal grease would have been better. Dot-method is best in most cases, the pressure of the heat sink would do the job then. Greets
I now do the dot method - Back when I did this, I'd read a webpage that said thin layer was better as dot method could get bubbles. But I still used too much and from your's and other comments it seems dot method is the preferred/correct way.
Appreciate the kind words of advice !
Thanks for the additional info !
You can get them in the same series (i7 have mobile and desktop processors), but their physical shapes are much different so you wouldnt be able to put a Desktop Processor in a Laptop.
since i was browsing the comments and saw yours i thought i'd respond. for the processor. its a definite no as the socket format is totally different so research on your chips socket will determine the highest range of chip you can invest for. as far as hd you can stick any 2.5 form factor harddrive in it just know you will have to clone your disk before installing or you will have to reinstall all a new OS.
Sorry for the misunderstanding. In that case.... try re-seating everything again?
I didn't touch the BIOS. You might have knocked something else loose or your ram/processor may not be installed properly, I know I've installed RAM before and it hasn't been inserted all the way even though it looked OK.
Its heat sink compound - Without it the transfer of heat from processor to the heat sink isn't as good.
You can get it on eBay, Dealextreme online etc inexpensively and also Radio shack, Fry's etc locally.
Yeah, I don't know why on earth I didn't pull the battery...
Probably the Thermal Paste, but post the time and I'll see exactly what you mean and will confirm. It allows heat to transfer to the heat sink so it cools adequately (can get it on eBay, Amazon, Best Buy most any computer store).
A RAM upgrade shouldnt affect it, the processor depends on the computer manufacturer. Some it will void it unless they do the work, others don't mind as long as the failed part isn't related. Check the manufacturers website.
You really shouldn't need to upgrade within the warranty period anyway.
The T8300 is a 2.4GHz is the fastest that you can put in the 1525, its also only about $25 on eBay.
I was somewhat confused. I wish the guy would have explained what he was doing as he went along.
Thanks, its help me a lot.
It's safe to say that ALL Laptop and Desktop Processors are not compatible, even with same series. I was just using the i7 as an example of processors that have desktop and mobile versions, I didn't mean to imply that the i5/i3 or any other processor would be compatible.
You have to buy the desktop version for desktops and the mobile version for laptops etc.
Seriously what the hell, watched this almost 10 years ago when trying to update ram on my msi laptop, and now it was recommended to me. Funny.
wow, this laptop is so much easy to update the cpu...unlike my compaq laptop, i almost dismantle everything to reach the CPU.
I used a combination of CPU-Z software, the manufacturer support page, wikipedia and forums.
Run CPU-Z to see what the name of your processor is, then cross reference and see if the support page lists different processors your laptop could have come with (and pick one thats better if shown) I tried wikipedia, but didnt help with yours
However there is a forum article on how to upgrade the L455D to a Turion, I will send a msg with the link as I cannot post them in comments.
When you turn it on the BIOS will detect the changes automatically. You might get a message that your configuration has changed and need to press a key to continue but that's it.
Thank you very much for the quick response, it is much appreciated. At present my laptop configuration is --
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5450 @1.66GHz
Memory: 2:00 GB
System type: 32 bit Operating System
If I may ask - what would be the upgrade that you would recommend for the above configuration?
hello, is it compatible with an intel core 2 duo t8300? Thank you.
If it was dried up I'd have cleaned it more thoroughly, but if a wipe will clean it off then it's fine with a wipe.
This feels like an ASMR
There is no separate GPU in this laptop, its built into the Processor that was replaced..
I'd like to point out you should take out the battery and hold the power button to drain the capacitors. Other than that, very good :D
That’s worrying too much. It will be fine.
okay then the search continues!
thanks for the quick response!
actually this system is 64bit, the reason why it only sees that much ram is because the integrated graphics is taking up the amount you dont see (it allocates over 700MB ram for vram usage as this uses unified memory).
I got it from Deal Extreme, no idea what the model number is. Its ok, seems to work fine.
That is too much thermal compound, don't you think. Wouldn't just a bead pressed in between the two surfaces should be quite sufficient?
Accordingly, the thermal compound is not for aiding thermal conductivity, but for increasing surface area of contact, because even for two very flat surfaces, there are minute crevices and therefore minute areas of non-contact. The number of such minute crevices of non-contact adds up to a significant total area of non-contact.
The thermal compound is not a better conductor of heat, but a somewhat good conductor of heat, whose fluidity is exploited to fill up those minute crevices.
It is better not to have the thermal paste between the two surfaces, had they been completely flat, which is not possible. Because if they were perfectly flat, the molecular attractions between the two surfaces would weld/fuse them together.
Physically it may fit, but the motherboard will not work with anything greater than the 8300.
That laptop in the video you can go to the CPU very fast in few steps, there are some laptop you must to disarm completly to can go to the CPU, some time changing CPU is at your own risk.
No, Your Hard Drive contains your Operating System and your files - that isn't being touched in the video.
I tried narrating once, it didn't really work out.
I can only answer questions related to the stuff I own, finding what processors to use in other makes/models of laptops would just be a case of me googling and I wouldnt know if what I found was accurate.
Apparently it supports 4GB maximum which it already has (if not, then yes, you can add up to 4GB). The processor may be upgradable. Check the specifications for the laptop AND the processor on Intel's ARK website. You should be given a list of compatible processors from both Acer (100% guaranteed to work) and Intel (which is based on the chipset and may or may not work). The latter may not work because Acer may have restricted the compatible processors via the BIOS.
so from my understanding, the way to upgrade the CPU on the laptop is to check what the chipset supports it right? The laptop I'm gonna buy have i5-3337U processor and it goes from 1.8ghz to 2.7ghz. The Chipset is the motherboard that is called Intel HM76... If it installs successfully, it would generate more heat or something?
Wow it's on the computer I have too awesome
From what I know, you can't upgrade a laptop video card. You'll need to make sure that the 2 processors are the same socket
I use DELL vostro (not sure which code number) and this is its spec's: Inter(R) core(TM) i5 CPU @2.67GHz, RAM 4.00GB, system type 64-bits, manufacturer ASUS. Lowest score in system index (control panel) is graphics at 4.3. So i want to updrade its graphics because some games are so slow to play even when i reduce their graphics resolution. Is it possible for me to updgrade its grahics power? I love playing games.
sir, what is the most important things to upgrade in the laptop to get a better performance in gaming ?
RAM, Processor, memory card , hard drive , video card ??
sorry am dont know much about that
Hi, my question is why didn't you clean up and add fresh thermal paste to the GPU? I've viewed a few of these types of videos and not one person has refreshed the thermal paste on the GPU. Is there a reason for this? It would seem to me that since you're in there you might as well clean it up and add new paste. Correct me if I'm wrong...
Looking into purchasing a Dell Inspiron 15. It comes with 6GB of RAM and an Intel 3rd gen i3. Is it worth the upgrade? And if so what would you recommend I upgrade to?
hi do you know if this laptop will support any quad core cpu's
Nope - just dual cores.
I see a lot of people come here expecting that if you do this your computer will be better at gaming after this. People have to realize that you need a graphics card to really improve performance. And if your computer comes with integrated graphics, then your most likely screwed because that's most likely all your motherboard will support.
hi quick question, i have a dell inspiron 5520 with a 2nd gen i3 2370m processor clocked at 2.4GHZ. i was wondering if i could upgrade the processor and install a AMD graphics card in it. i asked b/c i saw the same model with the identical motherboard with an intel i7 and AMD graphics card, so what do you think?
Not with a Dell 1525 you cant, they wouldn't fit and the BIOS wouldn't recognize it. If you find out what it in your computer you can use that to cross reference (using the intel/amd sites and the wikipedia site plus forums) to figure out the fastest chip that would be compatible.
I dont know, you'd have to check the Toshiba Support website/forums etc. I outline the process I followed in the description.
Ive been told in order to run a game I need to upgrade my processor from an i3 to an i5, which this video is very helpful on..I also need to upgrade my 'dedicated video ram', any ideas how to do that?
I have the dell inspiron 15r n5010
Thanks for the reply.
Do you think you could find me a processor for my Dell Inspiron 1501? I would highly enjoy a faster processor being i am a gamer and my inspiron is my only computer... if you can find a list of compatible processors i would be very thankful.
No. They use different sockets.
But if it has paste already on. Can i just put the heat sink back on. I am just wanting to clean the heatsink.
what about acer travelmate p253e 8gb ram intel 1.8ghz processor. I want to upgrade it to 17 processor but am not sure what to do or if it will work as i have seen that when you buy the processor you get a huge fan with it. Obviously the fan wont fit in my laptop. do you HAVE to put the fan in or will it just explode if you dont? thanks
More RAM consumes more power, but I doubt you'd notice much of a difference if any.
What is the square piece that is in front of the processor? The square that the heat sink is also on.
I see. Ok then what was the other component below the processor that used part of the heat sink? Is it another processor? Thanks for the reply by the way.
Can they also use graphics cards. Ive been dying to upgrade the hell out of this specific laptop for years now.

Did you update to the latest BIOS before doing this install? I did the same upgrade only using a T8300 and 4gb RAM @800mhz. Now my computer won't boot up. No display at all. I even replace old ram and CPU, still nothing. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
