Changing the HDD is a solution to speed the system. However, if you change the disk the ALT+F10 won't work anymore since it is a hidden partition of your old drive. To be able to do this you need to "ghost" your old HDD onto the new one. But seriously notebook are cheap now. I just bought one for a friend (an ex-fed system, almost brand new, DELL 4300 something) for $275 shipped. If you want, I'll give you the guy's email so you can get one from him.
