Memory for laptop

[Joshuah]

I just got a laptop of my nan as she got a new one, its one her old school ones, its actually now scrap so she gave it me, it has Windows XP Professinal I got rid of all of her old school stuff, only problem, its really slow, what can I get to speed it up (alot) and cheap like round about £40 ($70 odd)

Thanks,
Me =]

that's not a lot of information lol

what kind of laptop is it? brand? model?

do you know what kind of ram your motherboard would accept?

and will you be using the ram to put up a winners thread for sotw 21 soon? or will have to do it?

and £40 is roughly $80 lol (irrelevant)

Sorry if this is a bit off-topic but it's with my laptop, it won't let me do automatic updates, considering it was one of my names old school laptops, I don't know what to do, here's a screenshot -

i'd recommend you restart your PC - and your computer is windows 98 which is pretty old, but i don't know if the error is linked to that
