I am considering upgrading my laptop (Vista o/s) from 1MB of memory to 2MB of memory. Will I be able to tell a drastic change in my computer's speed? I can tell right now that it isn't as fast as it could be, but it's not exactly slow either. What do you think I should do? It was very fast before I put Vista on here.

I have a Packard Bell EasyNote SW51 that I bought in March of this year.
Thus far I have had no problems with it (despite running on Vista) however now, it won't charge properly. It won't hold charge as long as it used to, and when it is plugged it it only charges about 1% every 2 minutes. The only times it charges semi-properly is when it is turned off and charging.

When I tried to register my Laptop on the Packard Bell website for assistance, I was told my serial no. is invalid (The no. is the same on the box it came in, plus the laptop casing....) So I need help from you guys. Both to figure out my battery problem, plus to work out why my serial no isn't recognised....
thanks

overheated the insides. For a while it wouldn't charge and i could only use it when the charger was plugged into my laptop. Obviously it didn't like that and started smoking. All of my photo's and word docs are on there and i want to get them of and put them onto my new laptop. There is no battery charge left on my old laptop so i can't even start it up. Is there a way of taking the hard drive out and transferring all my stuff. I heard someone say something called ghosting but i don't know what that is?? Also if there is a way for me to do it can anyone tell me where i can get the equipment from?? Thanks for the comments :)

I have noticed on a couple of notebooks that the c2d 1.6 seems to be a little sluggish when loading programs. I am glad therefore that I opted out for a 1.73 core duo instead . The performance of cd is more than enough for me. Anyone else has similar experience ?

OK......here it goes! I download a movie and thats all fine. In order to get it to burn on my laptop. I have to transfer from my NTFS format laptop to my external HD that is FAT32. Then burn thru convertXtoDVD from the Xdrive on a DVD-R. That is also fine. The burned disc will then play on my home DVD system and not on my computer. If I switch the DVD-R to a DVD+R then the opposite happens. It works on my comp but not on my home system. I can deal with that.......but what is really gettin me is that I cant get either type of DVD to be copied thru Nero 7 U/E. It takes way to long and not neccesary to be making copies thru convertX so I cant figure this nero problem out. I can be contacted thru my profile since this might be a back and forth conversation. Thank you very much in advance for your help!

I was using my mother's dell laptop and I got up and dropped it. Part of the keyboard came up and there are a bunch of colors and things on the screen. Did I break it? I can still sign onto computer and can open programs but the lines are not going away. Please say someone can help me fix it because my mother will kill me if I broke it.

I have the chip type: Intel(R) 915GM/GMS,910GML Express Chipset

I want to buy the game Call of duty and I'm not sure if it is compatible. I've visited some websites: http://callofduty.filefront.com/info/Requirements
http://www.ultimate-gamer.com/cod/cod.htm
but I cant get an answer. Mind you I'm not that good with computers, but I'd like to think I'm okay, but does anyone know if my computer will work for the game?

ps... My laptop meets the other system requirement but I'm very unsure about: chipset, sound card, video card... I don't know much about those 3 and I don't know If they are compatible...can anyone help me out..?

I want to buy a PC game but I don't wanna make the mistake of buying a game that isn't compatible with my laptop. I know the basics, like that I have 512mb RAM, 80gb hard drive, but I wanna know stuff like video card, sound card, chipset, things like that.... How can I find this stuff out? Is it written on my laptop, or saved as a file, or do I have to contact the company?
