this computer runs really slow.... after i buy the hdd from sup2jzgte would overclocking ( if it's possible) make this run better or is this computer too old.. it has 512 mb of ram... would adding another 512 help also?
Is it possible to overclock this?

I agree with that he said above, There may be some Over clocking options in your bios so have a look,Thats the only real way to tell.
If there isn't any options you could always do it through windows using an app called Clockgen.
But personally i don't think it's worth it, It's a budget low end processor and I highly doubt you will notice all that much of a difference.
Going from 512 of ram to 1gb would give it some boost.
If you feel that its too slow for your needs,Its time to upgrade my friend.

this is just a i wanna say back up or internet/ homework machine.....just don't want it to take so long to boot up, open programs, etc.
Ahh okay....well in that case i suggest getting that extra 512mb of ram,or if you can get your hands on a cheap 1gb stick get that and have 1.5gb..
Give the system a defrag,uncheck anything in msconfig that you dont want/need starting up with windows.
better alternative if you have the xp disk..re-install windows fresh
