Alright, about a year ago I had my brother purchase me some RAM. 1gb.
He knew what he was doing, but when I finally got it, it didn't work. I haven't been able to see him since to get his help.
Now, upon furthur inspection, on the current RAM thing in there, I found some of these numbers(This is one that works).
32Mx64 SDRAM
256MB(Not kidding), DDR, 166MHz, CL25
PC2700U-25330-A0
Checking out the 1gb I bought, all it says is "PC2700" on it.
The rest of the numbers on the RAM looked like serial numbers(On the one that works), so I didn't write them down.
But based upon that knowledge, what exactly do you guys think would work for me? I NEED to upgrade my RAM, it's so ridiculous now a days, and I can't really get a new comp.
I tried doing some research myself and checking Newegg.com, but I got so lost and confused I had no idea what to do.
I can't really give you guys any information on any of the hardware in the computer, since I wasn't the one who originally purchased it and I have very limited knowledge about PC internal hardware. Unless you can tell me how to find out the information, I can't really give it, sorry. >_<
Anyways, for anyone who helps me, thanks a ton. I greatly appreciate it. I'm looking to upgrade to 2gb of RAM, possibly 4 if possible. There are only two RAM slots in the computer, and I'm running XP. I don't really know the specifics on that, either, unless you guys could help me out with that.
Again, I'm sorry for how limited my information might be, or how unhelpful I can be, but I would greatly appreciate any help I can get.
