Is it possible to get info on the type of RAM your pc has without physically taking it out?
I thought it could be done under the device manager, but i cant seem to find it?
I am running XP home and require some more RAM as pc is slow when working with graphics
Regards
Pete

It then goes on to state that 0MB is installed and that 4 banks are empty?0 -
Looking at the MSI site you need DDR1 ram. Look for anything marked PC3200.0
