I have the exact same problem, with the exact same CPU's.

This page made me think that they're all interchangeable, but now I'm guessing I should've chosen something from the third row only (T2500 or T2600, to be on the safe side):

Intel Core Duo processor T7200 (2GHz), T7400 (2.16GHz)

Intel Core Duo processor T5500 (1.66GHz), T5600 (1.83GHz)

Intel Core Duo processor T2300 (1.66GHz), T2400 (1.83GHz), T2500 (2GHz), or T2600 (2.16GHz)
