The Core Duo T5550 will outperform the Turion TL-60, albeit not by a great deal, but it is faster, and further, it also has better heat/power management. Having said that, for many users who are not doing a lot of "high end"...
What you are actually talking about is setting aside additional memroy as a ram-buffer. This may or may not be available as an option in your bios. On my dv6625us, i do have three choices, 32/64/128mb. If your bios does not offer such...
It is possible that your computer is not cooling effectively, and overheating will cause the cpu to throttle down, power wise, which could account for what you have noticed. Now, if that happens right from boot-up, then maybe it is not...
You can detatch the CMOS battery and it will reset to default. You can go to HP's support site, and download the tech manual for that model, and it will give you literally a blow-by-blow description where the CMOS battery is, and the...

Even though it uses the Nvidia 8400 discrete graphics, that does not mean that it is user-replaceable, in fact, on this model I tend to doubt it. At any rate, it is not as if you would be able to replace it with say a Nvidia 8800, for...
Sure, in Vista, just go Start - Help and Support - System. You'll see your motherboard model/version.
The question is how mobile are you going to be with it? In general, 17" screen notebooks are pretty substantial to be dragging around a lot, most folks view them as primarily desktop-replacements. Yes, they of course can be taken...
Well, I would, but again, don't get me wrong, it's not by that wide a margin that I say that, but if the performance is so similar as to be beneath notice, and the cost is higher to go the 3gb route (and it is), then I'd go with the 2gb,...
