If you are running Windows XP the additional RAM may make a barely discernable differerence.
I do not imagine you are running Windows Vista on 512 MB.

WHAT THE!!!

Lets see know he has a computer that he wants to make better doing the cheapest,fastest,easiest upgrade that even a primary school kid can do:a memory upgrade!!!:clap

Going from 512mb to 2GB !@#$%^&* of course thats going to make a big difference,think about it man 512 megabyte v's 2 GIGABYTE!!! :groan::illogical:lol:

Vista would have to be a 64bit edition and 4GB of ram would be my minimum to run that bloated OS.

I installed 1GB on my mothers computer after having 512, and the difference was night and day. It was immediately far more responsive. I suggest going for the 1GB, as even though you won't always use it, it's always nice to have some overhead for when you do.

As for Vista, you don't know what you're talking about memphis.

723029 2008-11-27 21:01:00 thanks for that "Thebananamonkey" I thought I might go for 2 or even 3GB as I intend to do video editing. My computer hesitates when I open several audio tracks at the same time, hoping this upgrade will help. Interested in your comments. I am at a fairly basic level when it comes to computers. Cheers G.
