General Comments

This Asus L8400-B laptop has been nothing but good to me. I purchased it with a PIII-650 and 128MB of Ram with a 12GB hard drive and 16MB video. It ran Windows XP ok but not fast enough so I upgraded the ram to 256MB and the video to 32MB. I also purchased a 40GB hard drive and now it runs almost anything I throw at it (exceptions being some of the more graphic intensive games). I would not trade it for another similar priced laptop. My back-pack DVD writer works great plugged in to the USB port.

    The Asus L8400-B is not a bad laptop, and I have noticed PC World sells this at a very low price indeed.

    Hello,

    we have recently purchased a secondhand L8400 C.

    How did you upgrade the RAM?

    We can't see how to get inside the thing except by undoing eight screws on the bottom of the case.

    Thanks
