RAM QUestion
I recently had my Media Centre PC fail.
No POST and constant beeps.
After some internet research and a bit of trouble shooting it turns out one of my 1gb RAM sticks is goosed. It had a total of 2gb.
Good so far.
After a bit more research I decided to upgrade my RAM while I'm at it.
I was going to go for a matched pair of 2gb RAM to acheive 4gb total RAM.
MY OS is Vista 32bit. (Yes,yes, I know)
My understanding is that it will only recognise up to 3.5gb but probably only 3gb of RAM.
The question therefore is, do I go for the matched pair and upgrade to 4gb RAM or just stick a 2gb RAM in with my current (and only working) 1gb RAM giving 3gb total RAM?
Which will give the better performance, bearing in mind the age of my machine, approx 8yrs and the factit is my primary source of TV/media.
Thanks as always, in advance.
