Question

i need to know if it will fit the chipset

(compaq sr1503wm PC)

Answer 1

I'm not sure what celeron or pentium 4 it use.

there are some source you can look at. It has sockets etc...

Answer 2

look up your motherboard model on google and see if it upgradable to the processor you want

Answer 3

Yes, I believe their both socket 775,

Answer 4

you might want to take the side off and make sure that you know how to take the heatsink off and take the processor out.  those things are very, VERY delicate and will break if handled too roughly or inappropriately.  

I would make sure that you are not on carpet when doing the transfer, and that you know all the proper steps to take when going to perform the transfer.  

and, if possible, get something better than a pentium 4.  those are obsolete and aren't good enough for anything accept word processing.
