Well thank u for the quick response!

The laptop is an Advent 6410 bought from PC world.

It is running:
P3 1000
128
20 gig hd
14.1 screen
etc

As it is brand new i am reluctant to open up the little badger!

Because I am new to the world of laptops The little PCMCIA or CardBus IDE card, could it be SCSII?...FOr my next upgrade! (Maybe?)

What data transfer rate are these cards?
If that is the case then I could use an external harddrive as well!
Yippee!

Anyway could I get this little baby running quicker?
From a gig to 1.1?
I am currently trying to draw up a copper base design for the laptop to fit into. With an external psu I could get a couple of fans running, but remember I am reluctant to drill the laptop due to warrenty etc!

Many thanx,
I'm now wide awake and awaiting the response!
