Memory Upgrade

If a computer ... feels too slow, it's usually because the PC doesn't have enough memory. - MicroSoft

After the Processor (CPU), Memory (RAM) is the next most important resource a computer has. Having too little RAM becomes a huge 'bottle-neck' that slows the system down considerably.

To determine the amount of memory available on your system:

Click: Start -> right-click My Computer -> click Properties

This system has 384 M of RAM which is insufficient for Windows. These days, experts recommend a minimum of 2Gb.

Adding memory can be the least expensive and yet one of the most significant upgrades you can make to your computer.

Memory cards simply 'plug-in' to slots inside your computer. It is not difficult, and chances are, you know someone who has done it before. You can do it too!
