Lil,
Unfortunately, not every computer tech has their heart in their work or
your best interests in mind. If the one you spoke with assumed anything
(and it sounds like they assumed a lot), they were in a hurry to get through
you and onto the next customer. I always carry a USB stick with a portable
app that tells me all I need to know about the devices within a system
that's put in front of me. If the computer is not present, it only takes
about 5 minutes to locate and confirm the abilities of a mobo as long as the
make/model is known. You're dealing with laziness, M'dear.
If your mobo is only 2 years old, it is very likely designed for
dual-channel RAM. That means a matched set of 1GB sticks (2GB total) will
easily outperform a single 2GB stick working by itself. Send in the
make/model of your system (or mobo, if it's a custom build) and I'll look up
the important info for you.
And I'm glad I make you happy. :)
Peace,
Gman
