as you can see by my signiture i have a
HP Pavilion 061 EG195AA-B1U d4179.se
intel P4 - 3,6GHZ 800fsb (says it can be over clocked but the bios wont allow)
4x 512MB DDRII 533MHZ ram (2 are factory original)
**Audigy 2ZS sound blaster (removed as im using the onboard rca digital jack)
**wireless lan card (removed as never needed it, i use fibre optic hard lines.. so i can achieve the speeds i pay for (100MB/10MB)
Geforce G70 256MB 7800gtx graphic card (personally i think its a load of s#@%..always probs transfering vid to my lcd hdtv in front room)
2x burners (1=lightscribe + other LG secure disc)
im fed up with waiting for things to happen... could i upgrade RAM for better results...or is there a MOBO that would accept 2 of my CPU's??
just åpondering over if it would cost me more to adapt or upgrade...when i could just start from scratch again....
Should i ADD or dump the lot and get NEW??

Windows XP I assume? 2Gb of RAM isn't enough for Vista.
Well a lot depends on what you do with it. Are you a gamer?
That sounds like it's a good 6 years old so yeah it's a dinosaur. With a fresh WinXP install it would probably run greta for basic desktop use, but it's no power house. Especially considering HP always uses extremely conservative (and slow) RAM timing for stability.

Christians warn us about the anti-christ for 2,000 years, and when he shows up, they buy a bible from him.
