Because the chip is soldered to the motherboard, which is custom made for that laptop. And no, generally you can't upgrade the processor for the same reason. Even if you can its not a good idea because you're adding more heat to the same confined space.

An example of a good CPU for Dolphin is a Core 2 Duo e8400.

it still plays the game how it would on my computerslower than usual around 50 percent and i tested soulcalibur 2, mario kart double dash (300 percent in menu) and mario kart wii all fine but the graphics are a bit blurryp.s using directx 9 plugin with a mix of dx9 and dx10 build inusing most recent dolphin build to date from website download (4771)if you are having problems with soulcalibur 2 running click start as fast as you can until you are at the menu

Any (modern) card by nVidia should work, and maybe an Intel Core something (I7, Core 2 Duo)Never get a computer with just integrated graphics go for a name brand one

if its a laptop he doesnt have a choice.
M
oh well I still get a laptop that can emulate fine and can do stuff like any other computer or laptop
the only bad thing is that if i want to update im going to have toa) get a new oneb) taking it apart rip out the graphics card and putting a new one in which could break it and i wont want to do that

The Dolphin emulator works sporadically, if at all. It sometimes will run a game at 5FPS. After you see the thing in full action, you'll just spend thirty bucks to buy a GC. Then mod it yourself.
