    Hi to everyone.

    i have 2 questions that i hope i can be enlightened regarding my brother's notebook, the nx6115.


    1) The hard disk condition is falling rapidly, seen from the 2 screenshots.

    and the report from the speed fan web. Notice the 0% fitness and 97% performance..

    Speedfan reports that the fitness is 0%...but the Bios and Post shows nothing about the hard disk having an imminent failure. I have already backed up the necessary files. What should i do?


    2) the ATi Xpress 200M graphics takes up 128MB of ram, leaving me with 384MB. (Total ram is 512MB) the only way i could get the fastest performance out of XP was to disable as much services (i.e services.msc and system restore). Is it a sign for me to upgrade to 1Gb?

    Thanks!
