Better take good care of that laptop! Set it on a flat, smooth surface, get a laptop cooler, add new thermal paste, anything to keep it running cool! And a couple of years from now buy a cheap backup computer just in case this one dies on you.
Also since you're in Windows 8 now will that affect your development of JPCSP? If your laptop has Windows 7 drivers you can try dual-booting both Windows 7 and 8 so you can develop for both OS's!
