Is this enough computer memory/power for my needs?

My first suggestion to you would be stay away from the Sempron chip!  This chip has no thermal overload switch, and has been known to catch on fire all by itself!  I would recommend the Athalon, or Turon chip.  Also you should consider getting a minimum of 1 GB of memory, 512 MB is the bare minimum for any program.  I hope this helps, good luck!

maybe its time for a new computer or more space/memory

I think due to in-sufficient Memory Room i.e. RAM [Random Access Memory] your should add sufficient Memory Bank in your PC.

No.\nIf you have listed everything you want your laptop to do you aren't going to need to spend money getting a great CPU. Focus on ensuring that it has enough RAM (at least 512MB) and you should be sweet with any of the listed processors.\n\n///

It's safe, your hardware only pulls as much power as it needa from the power supply. It wont overload anything, if that's what you're worried about.

It sounds as if you need more Memory=RAM which you didn't mention how much the machine has..\ngo to http://www.crucial.com put the name and model number in the search place and they will show you the excat amount  and kind  the pc uses

Go to:\n\nwww.kahlon.com\n\nThey have an excellent site for finding out exactly what your computer needs in the way of memory.  They've also got some of the cheapest prices on the net.\n\nYou can find out what you need and then comparison shop at:  \n\nwww.newegg.com\nwww.tigerdirect.com\nwww.ebayexpress.com\n\nI think you'll find that 1GB laptop RAM will run around $100 at some of the cheaper sites.

Wow. So the main thing to note about this board is that it takes DDR2 memory, so if you don't currently have that you will need to get it to be compatible. I would say you would need at least a 450W power supply. If you have less than that now, upgrade. This is also a PCI-Express board, so make sure you have a compatible video card too.

I rebuild computers regularly and here's what you cando.\n\nIncrease your MEM to AT LEAST 256K and you will get by "okay".  Increase it to 512 and you will be fine using heavy programs.\n\n40 gb is just fine- ignore what others are saying.  You can install office, adobe, 2-3 MAJOR games and still have 15 gigs left! \n\nOf course if you want video editing, etc- you will need a bigger drive. BUT if you don't then 40 gig is enough for a casual user.\n\nGood luck.

I work for HP Canada, and when I look at your computer, the most RAM it supports is 1024 MB (1 Gig).  We recommend a minimum memory total of at least 512MB. but you may want to install even more, especially if you work with several programs at a time or use memory-intensive software, such as image-editing software.\n(Keep in mind that sometimes BIOS updates and other hardware configurations can alter memory recommendations.)

20GB should be way more than enough, as Windows probably uses less than 2GB and those programs are probably 1GB total.  17GB for music, video and whatever else you want.

This is what you should have (from HP):\n Memory\nComponent Attributes\nMemory Installed 1 GB (2 x 512)\nMaximum allowed 4 GB* (4 x 1GB) requires the replacement of the installed 512 MB DIMMs\n\n*Actual available memory may be less\nSpeed supported PC3200 MB/sec\nType 184 pin, DDR SDRAM\nDIMM slots Four\nOpen DIMM slots Two\n\nyou could go up to 2x1gb for around $150 at Newegg.\n\nYou are looking for ddr400/pc3200

First, it's 128 MB memory, but 16 meg is being shared for video. \n\nUpgrades of your system memory depend exclusively on your motherboard, so check your board's owners guide or the board manufacturer's web site for the total amount you can upgrade to.

Check your computer's specifications...usually found online someplace if you look up the model number and make.  Sometimes it'll tell you what the maximum memory is for your computer.  It doesn't matter what sizes you put in there to make up the numbers as long as (I'm thinking) it's within your max memory.  I seen some older computers only a max of 128RAM....was time to ditch those badboys.  I'm running 512mb right now...two 256 sticks.  Computer runs great even doing videos while running other programs.
