Yes, I dont know if you can put a Sonoma processor with a 533FSB, which will not run at that speed on your T40p, but for sure you could install a Dothan

You wouldn't be able to, as Benotto states, simply drop in a Sonoma CPU with a 533MHz FSB such as the ones featured on the T43/ps, those would require a planar drop-in; you can, however, put in another Dothan 400MHz FSB easily.

I met someone who looks a lot like you.
She does the things you do.
But she is an IBM.

Any B stepping, 400MHz Dothan should work. Apparently, there are C stepping 1.6 & 1.7 Dothans (400MHz). These do not work.
