Laptop upgrade help?


Well was hoping you guys can help me on an upgrade maybe in the future. I have a Dell Inspiron 1545 notebook and was thinking about upgrading it maybe. I'm not to computer smart so excuse my ignorance. What kind of upgrades can I do without spending a fortune? I just want it to run faster, be more reliable, and overall be a better computer but still not spend hundreds of dollars if ya know what I mean. Anyway any ideas???

From my understanding, there really isn't much you can upgrade on laptops.

The only things that could come to mind as far as upgrading on a laptop would be ram and hard drive. Although you'd have to have knowledge of what is the physical limit of ram the board can accept as well as what the limit of your OS is (32 vs 64 bit).

The hard drive will require you to install windows on the new one or clone the old hard drive's contents into the new one.
