Will I be able to install an SSD drive into my Dell Dimension 5150 that has as it's main drive a 1Gb and an exrenal drive of 1Gb with 4Gb of ram memory but with Windows7 32bit system. The system is nearly 6yrs old and can I do the job myself or will it have to go to 'the shop'? Will I see much improvement and which is the best one/size to buy?
Many thanks for any help
Cheers

Use this tool to find out if you can install an SSD drive: http://uk.crucial.com/ You don't need a huge capacity SSD. The idea is you put your OS on it and keep your data on your old hard drive. This will make the PC boot up very quickly and help with cooling. I would definitely do it if my pc were able to take one.

Yes I have got the original discs - Windows 7 Ultimate & Office 2007 Enterprise! What difference does that make?

That should make the installation easy. Easier than transferring the OS from the old hard drive to the SSD, anyway.
