well the processor decided one day it was gonna slow down, its a 2gig one i think, and i took it to one of my neighbours and he said yeh the processor isnt working as well as it should, and he would fix it, two days later he went on deployment with the RAF and he wont be back for a few months. im only lookin to upgrade it to a 3gig or maybe stay with two. the laptop itself is a Compaq, presario 2500

hold he said the processor has slowed down - is not tht ur computer has slowed down  if ur computer is running shit thn its probs full of spyware if not, and u realli wanna upgrade thn i can't see u being able to especially not with a compaq, and there is no way the m/b or anything else within tht laptop would support a 3GHz........
