The best and sure way to do this is to find out what motherboard you have Look it up in the manual or online. This will tell you what type of RAM and how much of it you can add. If you have a system from a company like Dell or Gateway, or similar pre-built systems, you can usually go to their website and lookup your model number computer and it'll give you that answer. ---Troth ----- Original Message ----- From: Christine Sent: Sunday, January 01, 2006 8:18 AM To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- capture devises/video cards and memoroy question I also had a separate question about memory.
