Hi No, I need to work out how to disable the onboard 64MB RAM before buying a 256MB stick. If it requires physical modding then I will leave it. Getting internal wireless and freeing up the much needed PCMCIA slot was my first priority.

Popped open my 240X, took out the modem card and popped in the wireless card. XP picked it up and installed no problems. It has no antenna at mo, but still it allows surfing in the same room as the router which is where I spend most of my time anyway. Excellent, it frees up the PCMCIA slot that I used to use for a wireless card. I can pop my USB 2.0 card in it, not only giving me faster USB, but an extra two ports. Now to try it in Linux Mint.
