| 105211 | 2002-12-12 02:07:00 | Be careful ... some of their models do use proprietary ram. Try the specialists in the US. They have much lower proces than Compaq. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 105212 | 2002-12-12 02:57:00 | From one site I found offering proprietary RAM for the Presario 2230 : 16 MB upgrade 109 pounds. Howver cheap you can find 512 MB sticks, it's unlikely that they will work in that machine. Did it actally have RAM in those slots before the burglary? |

| 105213 | 2002-12-12 03:06:00 | the pc has 16meg onboard ram so it should go regardless if any ram in slots. if pc dosn't go at all it could be dead psu or loose plugs even. | tweak'e (174) | ||
| 105214 | 2002-12-12 20:10:00 | Hello Jock, A 2230 was the first computer I owned, they are standard with wn95, 16mb ram, 2gb hard drive and a 133 cpu there are no usb slots . The Ram is definitly removable, but it will only handle a maximum of 64mb fitting two 32 SD at 100 mhz each . I found the little computer was a wonderful training machine, very stable, it handled most things all be it it would throw a wobbly if I asked too much . In todays inviroment Jock, I'm just wondering whether it may be struggling a wee bit now . cheers, Bob |
