Thanks for that, worked a treat, and adds up perfectly by simply changing the support service to 90 days.

Apparantly for an extra £12 you can upgrade the processor to a P4 2.8GHz.

Try the following link
http://configure.euro.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?cs=ukdhs1&kc=d&oc=d07302a&x=0&y=0

OR, ensure when you type the evalue code you type "d" in first box and "d07302a" in the second box.

That's correct. The 2.8 is better than the Celeron processor (more cache)

Unit only comes with 256MB. XP runs a bit sluggish on that. The memory upgrade is not worth it. You can pick up another 256MB from any decent website/computer shop for about £25

You're spot on there.

Perhaps I could suggest Crucial, high quality memory and excellent service

512mb here http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/listparts.asp?Mfr%2BProductline=Dell%2BDimension&mfr=Dell&tabid=CR&model=Dimension+3000&submit=Go for £38.76 inc VAT.

or £29.96 for 256mb DIMM - http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/MPartspecs.Asp?mtbpoid=949308FDA5CA7304&WSMD=Dimension+3000&WSPN=CT405741

Hope that helps!

No need to spend that much, 512mb of ram shouldn't be more than £20 on ebay

This runs best with paired RAM, so either just buy the 256MB to make 512 MB in total, or replace the existing stick to go up to (I think) 2 gig maximum.

There are only 2 moemory slots.
