Which processor should I buy to fit in this dv9000 motherboard?

Ok. I have a dead dv9000 that I'm trying to bring back to life. I bought a replacement motherboard for it because I have pinpointed the chip that blew.

The only problem is that the new motherboard is a socket 478mn instead of a socket 479 so the processor that I have doesn't fit.

I need to buy a socket 478 processor off of ebay and I want to know if it will work with this new motherboard that I bought.

Can someone please tell me which processor I should buy for it to work?

I was thinking this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/1-86-GHz-Dell-D-...d=p4999.c0.m14

Pic related. Pink socket is the one that won't take my damn cpu.
