I have been told, that my ram currently may actually be more of a hinderance then a benefit
I have recently upgraded from 256mb ram to 512mb and now 1gb of ram.
My current processor is athlon xp 2000+ and my mobo is asrock k7s41
I know these componenets are poor lol
anyways, i have been told that my ram (1gb of ddr400) may slowing down my comp due to it being faster then my mobo
I have noticed slowness during bootups, but i THINK an increase in speed after bootup (bootup is only slow after i click on a user on the logon screen, as it takes a long time when first booted up and logging on)
If i am slowing my mobo - is there any programs/things that can help me change how my ram is working, and use it to my advantage
or have i been given the wrong information...
thanks in advance... :D ...
