Hello, James.
I've done a little research on the SaintSong EPC-1.

I found in "Q&A" at their website -
Espresso currently supports PIII up to 700, 66MHz Celeron to 733, or 750
MHz VIA C3.  _But_ I found elsewhere on internet a writeup where they
were offering it with a PIII-800.

Support of faster chips _may_ have to do with board and BIOS revisions.
For example, I rechecked, and have here an Asus MEW-AM board. The
original version of the board supported only 66 Mhz Celerons up to
533MHz, but starting with Board Rev. 1.02 and BIOS 1003.004, it would
support 100 MHz chips, up to Celeron 1100 and P3-850.

Still talking off top of my head - I don't remember if you said what CPU
is in there now.  One consideration _might_ be memory speed.  The Asus
board here has jumpers which can set for 66Mhz cpu and 100Mhz memory,
but not vice-versa.  So if your existing SODIMM memory is PC66, that
might not work with cpu upgraded to 100Mhz.

 JB> The manufacturer is SaintSong (One word.) System model is EPC-I

It _is_ a cute little thing. :-)  Did you get the docking station with
it?

 JB> The MB, I know is by Intel, with an 810 vid. built in.

I think not likely.  Intel sold the 810 chips to a number of board
makers, like the Asus here.

Ouch!  Looks like time to go to Ebay and look for a 2.5" drive.

Sorry no definitive answers from here.  Have you email contacted their
Tech support and asked them?
