I just installed 128mb of ram to boost mine to 512mb, but i keep getting "there is not enough to run 'such & such' program"

so i think it may have been damaged in transit or when i tried to install in upside down (whoops - always a good idea to install ram in a well lit area)

Btw, its sdram its need for

are you running win2k? then it's probably the swapdisk size it's talking about. you should set it to a fixed size, usually 2xRAM. so for 512mb RAM, you should have both minimal and maximum size to 1024mb...

ME

but a reboot seems to have solved it, think it was something to do with the software for my drawing tablet looking for it

but its always good to test your memory i guess
