Hi,

Be careful, you will need to ensure that you get the right RAM for the
mobo and also that you get a supported hard drive (some older
motherboards had size limits on the hard drives they supported).

Ram probably go up to 128mb, 256mb maximum.
HDD 20 gb is probably fine.

However I really don't think it is worth doing.

Andrew.

                                                hello list members,  I
am  at present putting up with a very outdated
machine  .a p2 with only the originall  allicated  low level of ram,
plus
just a 2 and a half  gig hard drive,with Win 98.My querie is,waht would
be
the maximum amount of ram and what size hard drive could the P 2 system
handle still useing Win 98 S E?.I understand that both Ram,and hard
drive
capacity are quite cheap now days.I just want to compare the
approximate
upgrade costs with moving up to a  more modern system!.Thanks in
advance.Alan.
