upgrading the ram to 256 would be a great upgrade...96 is just not enough.

80g hard drive would just depend on what all you need to store...but it wont make any speed difference.

the possibility exists that you could take an adapter like this one and use a faster celeron. If youre motherboard can do 100 fsb then you could put like a 1g celly or P3 on it.

Just do RAM and maybe hard drive. Get too involved, you might as well get a new compuer!
