how much RAM does it have now?putauak said:
what is the confguration of you current RAM ? (e.g. 2 sticks of 512Mb or 1 stick of 1Gb)[ot]if you have 2 sticks of 512Mb you will have to remove 1 stick and replace it with a 1Gb stick, giving you a total of 786Mb[/ot]or if you have 1 stick of 1Gb you can populate the spare socket with another 1Gb stick[ot]but be v v careful choosing the RAM you purchase, as mathing new RAM with you existing RAM is very difficult for most people[/ot]use PCWizard to identify your current RAM
BTW: you did the right thing, asking for advise first:good:
Hi there
Thankyou for replying your words of caution are very warranted, just before your post to this thread I had just managed to make the installtion of a new RAM stick. I originally had two 512MB now I have a Corsair 1GB and one of the original 512 sticks. A massive improvement in performance already!! You are right about mating the RAM correctly, for info on this I went to Corsair's website and used their online tool to figure out what I needed and they were 100% on the money. The RAM stick worked on the first start. Once again thankyou for posting a reply as it was still reassuring.
