FInallly upgraded to more memory!! Been putting it off for a long time. And the only reason I did it this time was because i bought memory for a PC because I thought that was the problem, but it wasnt, so i put it in mine! Funny thing is that i had a 256 133mhz stick laying around and it would crash my PC when i would Extract big arse files, id get memory errors. So i removed. I had put it along side my 2 64mb 100mhz sticks.

The 256mb 133mhz stick I bought for the other PC didnt even let my PC boot up. So i exchanged it for a PC100, which i had bought earlier and returned for the 133mhz. But for the hell of it i put back the original 256 stick i had laying around by itself, and ran it for a few days, did some extracting and decoding and never crashed. So last night i threw in the 256 100mhz for a total of 512mbs and i extracted a 1gig file and it went smoothly.

Kind of odd.  lets see how long it lasts.

what kind of mobo you got?  that would help out with tryin to fit RAM.

hell, i dont  know, i bought this thing back when i couldnt even spell PC from Gateway, its a Jabil AMD Motherboard, and thats about all Gateway can tell me. It should say somewhere on the board but i am not to worried about it. One day i will update the whole shebang.
