    Improve Laptop performance

    Thanks for the link to the app. As for the numeric keyboard, I've tried that. On mine it's fn and f8 to enable the keypad, but the numbers part of it doesn't work. Thanks anyway. :D Beep. Keyboard error or no keyboard present. Press F1 to continue or del to enter setup. :D

    Improve Laptop performance

    I'me new to laptops and was wondering a few things. Is there a way to have the laptop run the cpu at full speed all the time, instead of powering down when not in use?

    Newbie Questions

    Thanks for the links. I figured a few programs like that would work, thanks very much. I should have been a little more specific. I understand about upping the voltage when trying to make a speed increase more stable. I was just wondering what most people were using as the best setting for...
