So old all the porn will be in black and whiteBrowsing history should be interesting
I'd buy a second hand or new cheap laptop mate. That thing is so outdated you won't be able to run normal stuff on it as none of the hardware will be getting regular driver updates still.My folks recently gave me an old laptop with WinXP on it. I can't even watch Netflix or install Steam on it, so I'm going to upgrade the OS to make it useful for something other than solitaire and basic browsing.
It's an AMD Turion64, 1.61 GHz, with 1GB of RAM and a 110GB HD.
1. What OS will be the best fit for it? (Will it even run Win7 or should I get a copy of Vista for it?)
2. How much am I going to have to pay for a suitable OS for it?
3. Where should I buy from? (I notice I can buy from eBay for about £3 but concerned it might be dodgy). Does anyone here own an extra (legit and unused) license key they could let me have cheaply?
Thanks in advance.
And yes I do plan to format the fucker.

Plus buying one should come with windows 10
Champ Man 01/02 will.Not a sniff FM will run on that
Try one of the minimalist variants of Ubuntu, like Lubuntu or Xubuntu.Not really true these days though, the various Linux derivatives have turned even more bloated than windows.
Minimum recommended spec for Ubuntu Desktop is 2GB of RAM.
Minimum recommended spec for Win 7 (32) is 1GB RAM
Fair enough mate, good luck but I think you'll find a lot of internet based stuff simply won't be compatible with the hardware.... if not now before long.I still can't afford it.
Sell your luscious hair locks to lasses wanting hair extensions, that fine ponytail will get you a few bob to get you a better laptop.I still can't afford it.

dont want nout for it mate just a cuddle
Agree that a change of hard drive would help but is it has a SATA connection a lower capacity SSD would help with the system speed, especially if using page swapping due to lack of memory. You can pick up 12ogb drives for £20.The hard drive should definitely be replaceable with something bigger too. You might get up 500 GB working on it..
That would require someone actually reading the OP as well as the thread title!I said in the OP that I was planning on formatting the fucker.
