Hi, best and fastest way to increase your laptop speed is upgrading RAM to 4 Gigs, using 2x2Gb RAM modules li
ke this one (UK seller).Adding a bigger hard drive won't increase laptop speed, but will give you more space to store your files.
Another way to speed up a computer is using CPU overclocking, but this operation, good on old computers, is not worth on a computer with new CPU like yours.
On you tube also some user posted videos on how to upgrade chips on motherboard of old Acer aspire, but I suggest not trying this, as risk to destroy laptop is very high, and it is generally not worth.
Better to stick with traditional upgrades.

- Last thing, software that promises to increase computer speed generally are not very effective. All software use computer resources it is rather unlikely it can give you more speed. Some speed increasing software carries viruses, do not download any software of this kind from untrusted sources.
If you think you have malaware (pop ups coming on, slow internet, Explorer crashing etc.) use
Spybot - software to check if you have spyware.
