How to switch laptop processors?

I have an HP Pavilion dv4 1213TX with an Intel Core Duo 2 P7450 @ 2.13 Ghz and 2.13 GHz Socket P (478) and a Compal 30F8 main board and with an Intel PM45 Chipset, do you know if it's possible for me to change my processor?

You cannot upgrade laptop CPUs for a variety of reasons. Many, but not all, CPUs are soldered to the motherboard in laptops. They are also designed for a very specific thermal envelope, and installing a faster CPU could lead to system instability due to overheating.

laptop processors do not have sockets... they are soldered to the mainboard.
