So, I am here for my laptop upgrade advices.
My laptop runs a bit slower a bit hotter.
Here's the specs : Intel Celeron 900 @ 2.2Ghz w/ 1GB DDR2 RAM w/ 160GB Hard Drive w/ Integrated Graphics. (Laptop : Dell VOSTRO 1015)
My Budget for Upgrades is Rs.15,000 ($260 approx.)
So, What should I do to make my laptop run faster.
Any OS changes ? Downgrade to XP /..........
Currently I am running Windows 8 w/ Ubuntu 12.04 in dual boot.

Can someone also suggest me how can I increase the gaming performance ?
I want to run some of the games but my laptop .................. 🙁
Any Help would be appreciated..............

There's nothing you can do to improve gaming performance other than turning off unnecessary software. The hardware is too weak, you can't upgrade and you wouldn't even want to waste money on such an old system anyways.

You can download gamebooster. Might help a little bit.
