Hello and thanks to all. I have a question and I know that the vast experience herein
can help me with an answer. I looked at the Search options and could not find what
it is that I need. I recently replaced a bad RAM card with a much smaller one and
not the PC is WAAAAy slow. The other RAM card had lots of errors and I removed one
from another PC I had and placed it into my present Compaq Presario tower. No errors
as shown on MemTest after a 12000+% run. The tower has 2-128 MB cards and only one
was bad. Now, I get no BSODs at all. My question is, since my motherboard will take
up to 512MB RAM (I use XP, 256MB RAM, IE7 Sp3), would it be better to replace both
128MB cards with one 512MB or another 128MB? Is it necessary to have cards in both
slots? If so, then I will stick to another 128MB. This is new ground for me and I
am not sure about what to do.
Thank you again for your time and help.
Tony
