Hey, here are the Acer specs.........http://www.acersupport.com/notebook/html/tm240.html

You have imbedded graphics( integrated with chipset ) so the only way to upgade is to switch motherboards.

You have a Celeron M CPU but you need to know the stepping code and model...........http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php.....Download CPUZ to get info.

You may be able to drop a Pentium M 1.3/1.4 CPU. This will increase performance over the Celleron regardless of the speed. They are cheap on Ebay.

You can add more memory( 2gb max )but I would try the CPU route first and then go memory if that is fruitless......Post your results
