Thanks for the replies.

I had already defragged my HD and try to make sure i don't store too many temp internet files. My biggest problem with how slow my laptop is especially when starting the thing up.
It can take anything up to 5 mins before i can go online or do anything like reload my iPod.
It's SERIOUSLY fustrating when all i want to do is either change some music on my iPod or send a quick e-mail.
All i want is to speed it up to something approaching acceptable.

So what size RAM upgrade should i be looking at?
Is 526Mb any good? Or should i go for 1024Mb?
I don't want waste money by going for too big an upgrade if the processor is'nt much kop.

Any advice???????
Ta.
