Just make sure you unplug the computer's power cord before you take the RAM module out from the motherboard. This may seems like a "Doh!", but in fact, most of the other operations like changing a PCI cards are best done after powering down the computer, of course, *but* keeping the power cord plugged in the wall outlet or the power bar, to provide ground. RAM change needs the power cord to be unplugged. Just my A+ 2 cents. Mark Delaney, MCT |

If you cannot lay your hands upon the computer's manual and the manufacturer doesn't provide a support web site, you can use one or more of these utilities to help determine the correct type of RAM needed: SiSoft's Sandra http://www.sisoftware.co.uk/index.ph...are_dl&lang=en Belarc Advisor http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html Unlimited Possibilities' AIDA32 http://forum.aumha.org/overflow/aida32.zip Lavalys' Everest Home http://www.lavalys.com/products/over...?pid=1&lang=en Also, Crucial Memory's web site (www.crucial.com) has a database to help to find the right RAM for your specific make and model computer and/or motherboard. Choose wisely. It is absolutely essential that any new RAM module(s) be fully compatible with both the motherboard and/or any other RAM module(s) already in the system. Additionally, there are sometimes jumper switches on older motherboards that need to be reset for new RAM configurations. Consult your motherboard's manual or the manufacturer's web site for specific instructions and compatibility requirements. -- Bruce Chambers Help us help you: http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on having both at once. - RAH |

How to find Memory speed
jay
i just whent threw this. enter cpuz hit search click on cpu-z click on downloads click on 126 click save- download to desktop right click on icon/ click open should get a screen with 4 ico right click on cpuz {far left on my pc} open click on run another window opens - click run a cpuz window opens click on memory it will look something like this. [the following is my memory, yours will most likely be diffrent.] 199.5mhz 1:1 3.0 clocks 3 clocks 3 clocks 8 clocks in my case, my speed is 3-3-3-8. if i would have bought and added a faster speed such as 2.5-3-3-5 my pc would still have run at the lower speed. that is why you have to know what your speed is and match it to the new upgrade. hope this helps go to newegg.com and they will help you find the right memory good luck dave "Jay" wrote: Hi, Im planning to buy more memory.
