    I got it a month or so ago, just rebooted it with a clean install of XP, it was getting way too slow. I am wondering though, is there ways of speeding it up? If anyone knows of any ways to make it run a bit faster, it would be a lot of help :)

    Thanks!

    What model do you have, and what drive is in it?

    Well alot of us have AA1s with slow SSD drives, where replacing can make a big improvment. But you already have the good drive. Be happy, I wish I had yours!

    Haha awe I'm sorry, I read somewhere though, don't recall where that we can do something with a SD card, to make them a bit faster? What is the biggest size SD card we can put into the slot?

    It's called eBooster but I personally found it no faster on the hard drive model.
