Precision 380 Upgrade RAM???
Hi,
I have a Precision 380 with 2 x 512MB DDR2 533MHz SDRAM Memory.
I have another 2 available slots on my motherboard. Can I insert another 1GB ram stick without any problems occuring? e.g. Will Windows recognize this and adjust the performance accordingly, or am I wasting my time with addding one in?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards,
Daniel Van Wijk

Thanks for your reply.
Questions: What is the max size of the RAM that the system can take? I currently have 2 x 512MB (matching) RAM sticks. Can I leave these in and stick in another 2 x 1GB sticks (matching) to give a total of 3GB RAM? Can the tower hardware/Windows XP handle this much RAM or what is the maximum amount of RAM that can be used?
Thanks again,
Dan

4GB in 32bit windows is not used the way we would like but three is and is really a huge amount of ram.
