749815 2009-02-20 22:45:00 Download CPU-z (www.cpuid.com), and click on the Memory tab once open. The memory type is in a box on its own. :) pcuser42 (130)

749821 2009-02-21 08:16:00 Thanks guys for all the suggestions. I downloaded the memory scanner at www.crucial.com and found out that I have DDR2 memory. Thank god its the cheap version. davehold (13001)
749822 2009-02-21 08:18:00 Make sure you buy the right speed, eg If your computer Uses DDR2 667, you must get that type of ram, or slower, never higher Blam (54)
