My original query was where could I find the 256mb module?

The 256MB may be soldered directly to the motherboard as I stated previously.

Glad you are clear now.

I will repeat.

DO NOT FORGET TO TAKE THE BATTERY OUT FIRST

Suggests 256mb is removable here

Hi sassybird, please can I warn you that installing more and more memory will not sort out a slug of a pc. Once you have ,say, 512mb you will get less and less noticable benefit. Best is a fresh install and in future go easy on the number of progs. installed. Maybe you could fit a better cpu? It's not moneysaving to buy more mem. and get no improvement.
