Upgrade or Replace? Advice please
I have a Compaq IPAQ Desktop PC running Windows 98 at home it only has 64MB of RAM. I have recently got ADSL and have started using P2P stuff for MP3s and video type stuff. Problem is, I need to a) protect my pc with some anti virus firewall software (which I have bought already), and b) burn some of the stuff on my puter to CD
The virus software slows the machine up to a dead crawl, and Compaq are not supporting the machine, or even acknowledging its existence as far as I can tell, and therefore I cant find an internal cd write drive (the box is a funny shape due to trying to compete with the IMAC)
Can anyone give me some advice as to whether its worth trying to upgrade the RAM and add an external CD drive, or buying a new box? I am a bit apprehensive about adding RAM as there seems so many different types. Thanks everyone, and Happy Easter!
