I prefer to be the she-male, my next move 😉

Edit. Got tutorials?

768MB of [b]free swap file space required. Free some and try again, moron*.

What the hell is this? I uninstalled limewire, works, and some stuff I never use, and I have 45 Gb free space, 😲

PLEASE HELP!!

* My laptop is quite harsh.[/b]

I know how to solve it but I don't like you enough to tell you.

I am open to bribery though.

Keep dreaming, Tiger.

Lol, well, it costs nothing

😉

Well, no, I think it has the next, after that 512... but anyway, it has
no respectable sound card nor video card, so the problem is this... I
use it only for internet and word processor, but sometimes I want to
play some nice game that requires not much, i.e. Fifa or Caesar III,
and then the problems start...

Tell me, how hard is to upgrade a laptop? Can I put some
testosterone in it or should I consider buying a new one?

I think Fujitsu-Siemens (sic) takes mine in trade for a new one.

Would you say EUR 650 (net, already substracting the old one) is
a good price? What should I expect/ask from the new one?

You need to work out what you want to use it for and get the minimum spec for the highest level processing you want to do.

So in your example:

Surfing Web
Word Processing
Occasional Gaming

You need to spec up for a gaming laptop, as this will allow you to do all, but anything specced less will leave you in the position you're in now.

Wow, thanks... but what defines a gaming laptop???

Also, does your help mean that I don't behave like a dick towards you?

It will have a better graphics capability, and the gremlins inside will pedal faster to make things work a bit slicker/quicker.

That link should help.

My helping reflects the fact I recognise you are a dick, and there is little that can be done to change this. Plus I'm feeling helpful.

If you get a gaming laptop you'll have no grounds to call anyone a 'Geek' or 'Nerd' again without being a total hypocrite.

Thanks, Mother Theresa!

Link is nice... that doesn't take away the fact that you are a hypocrite with an e-self esteem.

But the the link is nice anyway 😛
