| 600528 | 2007-10-11 07:35:00 | i reckon that as long as you dot wreck anything else you should be fine and i beleive that you should put in the 2 gig and leave the 512 in there as well because what can go wrong if you get the right ram for your model computer and if it dosent work with different ram in it just take out the 512 because 2 gigs (or 1 depending on what you have)fast enough alreay isnt it? cuz my ones only 512 and i dont mind. But if you want to play games on it i would get the highest possible. |

| 600529 | 2007-10-11 07:41:00 | Thats your choice . Theres no harm in warning people of possible dangers . Bet if you did it yourself and IF something happened you would roll over and say Oh ok thats fine - Like ****** I have seen so many posts here from people blowing up components from not knowing all the dangers - as I'm sure you have to shortcircuit . But Digby advised and thanked for the pointing out . End of story . No- I wasn't talking about blowing components up . . . and you really don't know what I would say if/when I blew something up last night . What I was saying is- as a professional you should not be giving people the wrong idea about warranties either express or implied . And before you get on a high horse- I had some input into setting up the CGA, so I possibly understand it despite being blond . :thumbs: If Digby wants to install extra ram his/herself and they are fairly confident that they can do it without damaging the computer- then why not have a go? Most people are intelligent enough to live with the consequences of stuffing up- and you can charge them accordingly for the pleasure of sorting the mess . That's the end of story |

| 600530 | 2007-10-11 08:48:00 | Hey shortcircuit, you got me thinking now :lol: with that comment about the blond, (no offence meant) Now I don't know if you are a he or she :p Doesn't matter anyway. - Never for a minute doubted your knowledge/skill. As I said before, I fully agree with you, I personally think it sucks that the stickers are there in the first place - you should be able to upgrade a PC if you want without risk of voiding anything. I'm not impling anything either - only stating a fact that the warnings are there. The only reson I even mention any of the warnings is in the past I have said nothing - then if something happens I get " Why didn't you say something" - Damned if you do damned if you don't. Digby - If it is an HP computer just make sure what ever RAM is purchased it can be exchanged if its the wrong stuff, not all makes of RAM work on HP's /Compaqs. |

| 600531 | 2007-10-21 01:13:00 | You can get this neat little tool from www.crucial.com and it will scan your PC and tell you exactly how much and what sort of RAM to get. I found out about it just today on this forum. Sorry I don't know how to make the address a hyperlink for you. |
