my laptop sucks

well, it doesnt, really... it just has a lot of delayed write errors and the hd makes a lot of unnatural clicking noises and for a 1.0ghz processor it moves a lot slower than it should... so what should i do? (its a dell inspirion 8100, btw)...

1.) get a new HD?
2.) get more ram?
3.) new processor unit thingy?
4.) new puter...

that sounds like a bad hard drive to me. i would call dell and explain the problem. they may offer to swap the hard drive on the cheap. however, the absolute first thing you should do is make a copy of the files you want to keep. floppy, cd-rw, web, etc.
