What sort of memory do i need?

[leaskovski]

Hi guys,

The mrs is harking on at me about how slow her pc is. She has currently only got 256MB so i think i can get away with sticking another stick in it.

The only problem is that i am not by the machine at the moment and work ha some old stuff laying about which i might be able to use. So she is running an Intel 1.8GHz cpu. What sort of memory is that likely to be using? PC133 or are we talking DDR?

Cheers

You (or she) can download and run CPU-Z.This will tell you straight away what current memory you have and therefore what you need.. Alternatively, you can do a physical check and inspect the module that's already in the machine.

Yep, i figured that just after i posted. Hopefully she can manage that and send me the info at work.
