Hi everybody,
I am trying to fix up my laptop. I noticed when I play movies, the picture does not fallow the sound. It kind of gets stuck and kethes up in a few seconds. I was wondering to improve speed on my comp I should buy new memory card (I think it can take another 265) or biger size hard drive?
Thanks.

If you say P3 as your OS, I take it you mean your processor is a p3 and that you only have 256meg of ram?

If that's the case an upgrade of ram probably would be a recommendation. But unless you tell us your processor's clock speed, I can't really tell you much else. Except that if your watching modern content in super high quality (i.e. HD videos) then unfortunately the comp is past it's prime for those I'm afraid.

Yep past its prime, though more memory would help, 256MB is barely enough for basic use in XP!
