I have a laptop with a celeron 1.6ghz processor, I have just upgraded the ram to 1 gig, done wonders for me, but I would like to upgrade the processor. The highest one compatible with the chipset is the celeron m 2ghz at £80. I use the laptop for music production and I need all the power I can get, but is it really worth upgrading by 600mhz?

Which Windows XP Driver with work for a Compaq Armada 1530 -which has a Cirrus Logic CL-GD7548 graphics card?

Ihave managed to get Windows XP to install on this laptop and everything is working except the graphics card driver is working in VGA Save mode and only about 8 colours are being displayed on screen - I'd like to stick with Windows XP but get the colours and screen resolution increased to their maximum settings.

I cannot find a compatiable Windows XP VGA Driver for this laptop.

Every so often when I am on line a message will come up saying microsofy has encountered a problem and needs to close. Also whenever I start my laptop it comes on opening the common folder and there's nothing there.
