t43 cpu upgrade shuts down laptop

[fishplateii]

i have a t43 2668-43u. i tried to install intel m 770 cpu, unit shuts down without warning  shortly after booting to windows xp sp3 (i was in the middle of 7 upgrades).

i put the intel m 750 back in and the unit ran fine for 3 days (powered on the whole time).

is there some adjustments i need to make for the 770 to run correctly?

thank you

Sounds like a bad CPU to me - 770, that is.

No adjustments of any kind are required, it's a plug & play upgrade.

Could it be overheating?

thank you.

that is the diagnosis i was hoping did not come up

so, i will just put all the pieces back together with fresh silicon paste on cpu.

that is what i think happens.

i informed vendor i bought from their QC testing needs improvement.

i will try a different fan assembly before going back to the 750 cpu with fresh

silicon paste.

thank you
