Laptop boost
I want to run a Sartin type program in a windows version and not currently for sale
I have a older IBM Think Pad that I purchaused used at a computer show
It came with windows 98
This was fine for the dos program Val 3 The developer of the windows program told me it would not work on windows 98 So I upgraded to windows xp Pro
The program works but its is very slow and the computer locks up
running this program
I have asked around and the typical answer is you need more memory
these are the specs for the computer that I can find
Intel Pent.II processor
331MHZ
192MB ram
Question
Poking around I found a tap in the control panel that lets me adjust for visual or proformance
If I click for best proformance but scarafice Visual would be fine as I just want to run a very basic text type screen
anyway I think I need more memory
Is there any kind of external memory gizmo or do I need to open the computer ?
Thanks I would rather not have to upgradee again as I bet almost all the time from home
now But I do like to take a labtop with me when I go to tracks
