old processor upgrade

Ok my cousin has a really old processor (intel pentium d 915 2.8ghz). Can he upgrade to a Core 2 duo. and how do i find the FSB limit? Is it important?

if its on LGA 775 socket, yea theres room for upgrades

indeed we would need to know the motherboard or in the event this is a prebuilt (hp, acer, emachine, etc.) the model of the computer itself.. though often having a pentium D in a prebuilt is basically an upgradrs death sentence.
