Hello i'm new to the forums and i have a qusetion, i was wondering if my laptop is upgrade-able

i have a HP (Compaq) Pesario 2100 i had it since 1999

here are specs

Processor:
1.85 gigahertz AMD mobile Athlon XP
512 kilobyte primary memory cache

Memory:
448 Megabytes Installed Memory

Hard Drive:
40 GB
 
1999 is not accurate. Maybe 2001, but I'd venture closer to 02 or 03.

You could upgrade your harddrive, maybe your RAM (check crucial.com). CPU would be difficult, as it's hard to find XPms.
 
Not much in there is worth upgrading, older tech that would be compatible (RAM/CPU) you will pay a premium for, as its not made anymore. Just get a new laptop, you can pick up a screamer for 600 from dell outlet.
 
well, from what google told me it seems that lappy uses ddr ram so that might be a doable upgrade. you can also upgrade the hd. other than that nothing else would be worth upgrading. but add up what it will cost you to upgrade and then compare it to a new cheap lappy. a cheap new lappy will win every time.

If you're interested in what the rest of the [H]ard Communiity thinks, lets get started with a budget / use of the laptop / etc. And we'll spec out the best bang for the buck. Its what we do [H]ere :D

i'm on a cheap budget $600 - $800 :(
 
600-800 is a big budget. i just got a $400 laptop and all it needed was another gig of ram. now it's a screamer. won't game really, but i've gotten accustomed to not gaming on my laptop.
