Hi guys, joined up as i'm looking to get some memory from here and just wanted to check how to go about this.
The machine in question only has 256mb installed running XP Home and is dog slow. It boots quick, but then NAV and CCAP seem to be processed that just wont shut up.
Ultimately, there are 30 odd processes running and the mb idles around 220mb. Is this unusually high? Either way, anything else I do obviously only has 36mb to do anything with!!
So, I'm looking to order 2 x512mb DDR PC2700. The motherboard is a no-namer with VIA chipset. I only know that the memory I need is DDR. The machine is about 4 years old. Will it hurt to run the PC2700 in here?
