Adding memory to my computer running windows xp.
I added 256 RAM, along with the 128 RAM already there. Everything worked
fine. So now I have 384 mb of RAM. Today, I added another 256 RAM, same make and model, but my computer goes crazy. My Dell troubleshooting guide says I can max at 768 mb and covers what needs to be done for Windows 98 and NT, but not XP. Can anyone help me please?
