You don't need anything except Acronis True Image. It will transfer everything from your existing hard drive to the new one - boot sectors and all. Then just move the new drive to the laptop.
This Dell I'm on right now is a Celeron 2.0 and it works pretty good with 640M of RAM but it doesn't play games too well. A gig of ram and a faster processor would certainly be more satisfactory.
