Memory?
Sunday, November 2, 2003 by Richard Mohler | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I just purchased a memory upgrade from 256mb sdram to 512mb sdram and I just want to know if it will make any difference how things run. Don't know alot about these things so if anyone out there does know, let me know. Thanks, Richard

Well, you guys won't believe it, but this "newbie" can actually help!
Just this afternoon I bought a 512 stick of DDR... whacked it sraight into the second slot, behind the 256 stick, (in other words, the spare one).
I booted up,checked for conflicts.... none, ran three of the most resource hogging proggys I could find at the same time, and whaddya know.... fast, smooth, happpy happy computer!
I now have all the ram I'll need for a while. 736 megs of it... woohoo!

DDR or SDRAM----if you double your RAM you'll see an immediate improvement in the performance of your 'puter. Like Wrecklesserk, I'm a 736 Meg-Man---now even more of a man than I ever was before
