| 260163 | 2004-08-10 05:06:00 | Hi, I have 192 mb of ram in my equivalent to a Pll computer and with a 500Mhz CPU and a total of 19 gb hard drive space- I used to have W 98SE.-- all using AMD hardware. The whole set up is going pretty well ( no doubt thanks to the the advice received from F1 and others :-) I intend to replace the tower/computer in the near future with 16-1900Ghz CPU and a new motherboard and CD burner etc- when I build up the cash box a little more. I have one spare slot in which I can insert morer RAM of 128 mb which I am told will immeasurably speed up my somewhat ancient puta :-)- this at about $60 second hand - if available. It is not too slow, but I run into stalled workings as I open up more than the minimum programs at the same time. Will this, in fact make these "stallings"( they come right after a time) a thing of the past and will it actaully speed up the programs anyway and as well And has anybody got 128 of AMD ram for sale? effie c |

| 260165 | 2004-08-10 05:42:00 | More RAM will certainly help, but a bottleneck will still remain to an extent with the 500 MHz CPU. I have run XP here on a 600 MHz CPU / 128 MB RAM PC, and it did speed up with 256 MB RAM, but it only got rid of about half the sluggishness. You RAM is "probably" SDRAM, 133 (or 100) MHz speed? Worth doing though. |

| 260169 | 2004-08-10 08:09:00 | Hi F B, ddr ram won't fit - I have had a degree-ed tech assisting and he looked at my computer and immediately diagnosed AMD ram - with a vacant slot - DDR ram is pertaining to newer modern putas so sorry won't work. I am intrigued at one reply sayng there is no such thing as AMD ram - who do I believe? At this moment I have no choice as I see it but to wait until my "gold coin" collection swells a lot lot more Any other comments please? effie c |

| 260170 | 2004-08-10 08:22:00 | Hi Godfather, yes- as far as I am aware I have sdram - 192 mb off it - with 188 mb available-- is there a "ram speed measurement"?- by th etone of your reply - it would speed up the puta but not correct the hangups- is that as you meant it? If this be so I must walk away from spending what in the ling run wil buy me :- Quote ( X 20 ) AMD entry system using my h/d drives MSI mainboard 6X USB 2.0 10/100 lan Duron1.8 Ghz CPU CPU fan 256 mb ddr 333 ram ATX case with 300 watt PSU Floppy dreive $429 And (2) Intel entry system MS16487 VIA 74 M4KM FSB533 6 X USB 2.0 10/100 LAN Celeron2.4 Ghz CPU CPU fan 256 mg ddr 333 RAM ATX case with 300 watt PSU floppy drive $475 any comment? - these quotes come from one of my previous tutors now commercially employed effie c |

| 260171 | 2004-08-10 10:10:00 | Believe what you are reading here. There is no such thing as "amd ram" The ram in your comp is probably sd ram which is interchangeable with intel,via,sis and other systems. The techy you talked too must have had too much cough syrup for lunch. :-) |

| 260172 | 2004-08-10 10:26:00 | Based on Effie post I see two computer both of which use DDR333 RAM. I guess I am as confused as you are???? I have some SDRam here I am quite happy to GIVE away but only to the right person and motherboard. The post says both computers are better than 500 Mhz processors. |
