I bought my laptop last summer and just recently have been using it for gaming. I'm not really a hardcore gamer, and I don't play any games that are extremely demanding (though I will be getting World of Warcraft this summer). I currently play WarcraftIII and Diablo II.
When playing these games on my laptop, considerable slowdown is noticable...especially when playing warcraftIII. I'm looking to make some upgrades to improve my comp's speed. Here are the specs:
-Dell Computer Corporation Inspiron 5100
-Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (build 2600)
-2.40 gigahertz Intel Pentium 4
8 kilobyte primary memory cache
512 kilobyte secondary memory cache
-30.00 Gigabytes Usable Hard Drive Capacity
-Board: Dell Computer Corporation 09U807 Bus Clock: 133 megahertz
-512 Megabytes Installed Memory
Slot 'DIMM_A' has 256 MB
Slot 'DIMM_B' has 256 MB
-MOBILITY RADEON 7500C [Display adapter](It's not integrated)
Digital Flat Panel (1024x768) [Monitor] (19.7"vis)
-SigmaTel C-Major Audio
Any suggestions as to how I can speed this thing up are greatly appreciated.
