They are both integrated video, and the Intel one would be slightly better. The CPU in the 1525 is significantly better than that in the 1501, and given the power savings of the intel chip over the AMD would close some of the gap in the...

Nope. The 1500m was for the M90, a 17-incher and completely different form factor. One look at the video card tells you this: D810 video: M90 video (1500m, 2500m): You could upgrade to the 1400m as in the M70, but as I said...

Nothing amazing. You can get a basic e1525, which has similar specs (1.86GHz intel CPU (better), 1GB RAM (same) and 80GB HDD (less)) straight from Dell for$499... so considering the e1501 is an older model and is slower, and certainly...

1. Which Pentium M? The 725 or the 730 (they both run at 1.6GHz)? Need to know this as it is essential to the pinmod. Very basically, the pin mod overclocks by forcing the CPU to run at a 533MHz FSB, so in this case you would go from...

Ask for the disc from your roomate. Either that or take it back (ransom something if theirs perhaps... childish yes, but THEY STARTED IT ). Why did they make one in the first place? Why access to your computer? Stu

1. Sure you weren't low on battery at the time? Cos will automatically enter sleep mode when it reaches low percentage... 2. FN combinations will only generally work when the Dell system software drivers are installed. You can dl...

It can't be glued in... must be stuck a bit, just apply a bit more pressure see if it comes out. Stu

It will support a 1GB stick in the free slot (+ the inbuilt 256MB for 1280MB total), despite reported limits. Just make sure you get the compatible SO DIMMs. Stu

Not out of the ord for demanding games! Remember that there is not a huge amount of space for heat dissipation in that laptop. You can do a few things to help this though, such as setting the fans more aggressively in fanGUI, and...

Or cable... or connection. I'd go the cheap route first and replace the cable. If no joy there then try inverter. Stu
