RE: keyboard removal

Some keyboards are not held by screws from the back, but by little clips around the keyboard. Typically they will be above F1, F5, F11 and num Lock. Try running a small screwdriver along the gap between the keyboard and the surround and see if you feel any resistance, or "bumps". If so, that may be a clip. Push it away from the keyboard, it is a spring loaded bit of plastic, you can then lift that area of keyboard. Move along the top, and release the other catches. If you still feel resistance, there may be a screw as well. DONT FORCE IT, you will break the keyboard.

RE: win 7 slow start

Microsoft used to provide a diagnostic tool which would monitor bootup progress and highlight any problems, however, I don't think it is supported for Win 7. You could try looking in the Event Viewer for anything unusual, but you probably need a technician who knows what to expect to check that out.

RE: Slow computer

I don't think that the 6522 will take more than 1Gb RAM. The supplied amount is a single 512MB SODIMM and one free slot.Also it takes PC133 and so will be fairly expensive if you can even get a 2GB chip.
